Information Technology Instructor

About the Role 

Campus is seeking experienced, mission-driven, student-centered IT instructors to deliver high-impact, online courses as part of our technology programs. This role is ideal for IT professionals who are passionate about student success, thrive in virtual environments, and are excited to bring real-world expertise in areas like A+, Network+, and Security+ into the online classroom. Candidates should be eager to support learners at the intersection of academic growth and career readiness in the fast-evolving IT landscape.

You’ll join a growing network of faculty dedicated to creating meaningful learning experiences for students from all backgrounds, particularly those historically underserved by higher education.

What You’ll Teach

As a Professor in the Associate of Science in Information Technology program, you will lead engaging, career-focused courses that provide students with the foundational skills and technical competencies needed to launch or advance in the IT field. Primary courses instructed will include:

  1. Introduction to Information Technology

  2. CompTIA A+ (Core 1 and 2)

  3. Network+

These focus on hardware and software troubleshooting, operating systems, network configuration, and system maintenance aligned with industry certifications. Professors are not required to be certified, a combination of education and experience will suffice. 

You may also have the opportunity to teach courses in Linux administration, AWS cloud foundations and architecture, cybersecurity, project management, and data visualization—each designed to expand students' technical toolkits and prepare them for real-world roles in IT. Through your instruction, students will build confidence using current technologies, preparing for certifications, and developing the skills necessary for entry-level employment or continued study in a four-year degree program.

While a foundational curriculum is provided, instructors are encouraged to personalize the learning experience by developing their own lecture materials, slide decks, examples, and enhancements that reflect their professional background and teaching style. Your creativity and real-world insights help bring the content to life and make a lasting impact on students from all backgrounds.
