Job description

$2000 Sign-on Bonus


Computer Networking Technology Instructor – Put Your Experience to Work (No Teaching Experience Needed)

Are you an experienced IT or networking professional looking to step away from the constant pressure of tickets, outages, long hours, and rapidly changing demands?

This is your opportunity to stay in the field, share your expertise, and build a flexible, rewarding career helping train the next generation of technology professionals.

We’re looking for industry experts — not career instructors. If you understand computer networking and IT systems, we’ll teach you how to teach.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Part-Time Computer Networking Technology Instructor, you’ll bring real-world IT experience into the classroom, helping students understand how technology works beyond theory.

You will:
• Teach hands-on networking and IT skills using real-world scenarios and tools
• Explain core concepts such as hardware, networking, security, and system troubleshooting
• Demonstrate best practices aligned with industry standards and certifications
• Share practical experience from the field, including problem-solving and system support
• Mentor students at all skill levels — from beginners to those pursuing certifications
• Assess student progress through assignments, labs, and feedback
• Maintain clear documentation of student performance and attendance
• Participate in ongoing training and professional development
• Work independently while supported by an experienced education team

No need to build curriculum from scratch — we provide structured materials, training, and support.

Minimum Requirements

• High School Diploma or GED
• At least 3 years of hands-on experience in computer networking or IT
• Associate degree preferred
• Minimum of 2 certifications (A+, Network+, Security+, or Microsoft Certified Professional)
• Proficiency with common software programs (Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.)
• Strong understanding of networking, systems, and basic cybersecurity principles
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Strong interpersonal skills and ability to engage students
• Ability to work independently and manage your schedule

Why This Role?

• Part-time schedule with flexibility
• No on-call shifts or after-hours emergencies
• Paid training and support to become an effective instructor
• Opportunity to make a meaningful impact on students’ careers
• Stay current in the IT field while sharing your knowledge
• A rewarding way to extend your career without burnout

If you’re ready to step away from day-to-day IT stress while staying connected to the industry, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
