Teacher Transfer of Service (TSC to PSC)
When the Public Service Commission extends an employment offer to a teacher, it is often a moment filled with excitement and change. Transitioning from one ministry to another can be a significant milestone in a teacher’s career. Understanding the process of transferring their past service with the Commission to the new ministry is crucial.
The Transfer of Service Process
Upon receiving a job offer from the Public Service Commission (PSC), a teacher embarks on a new chapter in their professional journey. This transition involves the transfer of their past service records and employment history. Here’s a step-by-step guide to the process:
1. Apply for Transfer of Service
Once a teacher accepts the job offer, the initial step is to formally apply for a Transfer of Service. This application is a formal request to move one’s employment history and records from the Commission to the new ministry. The application typically involves attaching the following documents:
– Appointment Letter: A copy of the appointment letter received from the Public Service Commission.
– Acceptance of Offer Letter: A signed copy of the acceptance letter confirming the teacher’s willingness to join the new ministry.
– TSC Clearance Certificate: A clearance certificate issued by the Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC), ensuring that there are no pending issues or obligations with the Commission.

2. Processing by the Public Service Commission
Once the teacher submits their application for the Transfer of Service, the Public Service Commission takes charge of the process. The PSC reviews the application and verifies the provided documents. This step ensures that all necessary paperwork is in order and that there are no outstanding issues with the teacher’s past service.
3. Submission to the Relevant Ministry/Department
After the Public Service Commission has processed the Transfer of Service documents, they are forwarded to the relevant ministry or department where the teacher will be employed. This marks the official transfer of the teacher’s service history to the new workplace.
