EPAP provides appointment eligible spouses with Professional Associate employment opportunities at post. Positions offered are full-time in Political, Economics, Management, Public Diplomacy, Facility Management, Financial Management, General Services, Human Resources, Diplomatic Technology, Office Management, and Medical areas. EPAP uses HR/OTA position descriptions (see EPAP webpage for PDs). Specific description of duties may be requested from the HRO at posts.
The Qualification Standards for EPAP positions may be found here: The EPAP Qualification Standards and position descriptions (PDs) were created in consultation with HR/TAC, HR/OTA, and other relevant Human Resource offices. For general PDs, please visit the EPAP webpage . For a detailed description of the duties and responsibilities, the applicant should contact the HRO at post. EPAP incumbents, unless they are separately accredited, do not have the same status as U.S. Foreign Service employees. Rather, such family members have derivative privileges and immunities, i.e., deriving from the sponsoring employee's status. Such status imposes a de facto limitation on what family members may do on the job and how they represent post. As is required for all Family Member Appointments (FMA), EPAP incumbents and supervisors will agree upon specific Work Requirement Statements (WRS, Form JF-57 EPR, Section III), within the first 45 days of employment at post. The WRS will confirm the duties and responsibilities as defined in the EPAP PD.
See Qualification Standards, which are a combination of education and general professional or specialized experience per the selected EPAP area.
