Kankakee Community College will host a virtual information session on Wednesday, April 29 for individuals interested in becoming adjunct instructors.
“Being an adjunct instructor offers a unique opportunity to share your expertise while making a direct impact on students’ lives,” said Dr. Quincy Rose-Sewell, KCC’s vice president for academic affairs. “It’s a meaningful and rewarding way to stay connected to your profession while helping learners grow and achieve their goals.”
The session begins at 6 p.m., and participants will have the opportunity to speak with deans from KCC’s academic divisions about current openings and departmental needs. Attendees will also learn what is involved in teaching as an adjunct instructor, how to be considered for a position, and tips for a successful application.
To teach transfer-level courses, a master’s degree in the discipline is preferred. A master’s degree along with 18 graduate credits in the discipline is also acceptable to teach transfer courses. For career and technical education courses, a bachelor’s degree or relevant work experience in the field is typically required.
Adjunct instructors at KCC are paid $872 per credit hour, and instructional support and resources are available.
The Zoom meeting on April 29 from 6-7 p.m. is open to the public. To register and receive a link for the session, go to https://kcc-edu.zoom.us/meeting/register/J6Sw-_2GQlio2PHZKQt7f.
KCC plays a vital role in training qualified workers for many occupations, while also adapting to future needs. The college’s career-focused programs and certificates are driven by input from advisory committees made up of local business and industry. KCC also offers the first two years of a bachelor’s degree, providing a high-quality, affordable foundation before transferring to four-year universities. Students can benefit from multiple services including career search help, veterans’ services, and programs for dislocated workers with financial need.
