Full Job Description

Zollege is currently searching for a Part-Time Medical Assistant Instructor to join our team.


About Us:

At Zollege, we believe higher education should be focused on empowerment, not financial burden. We’ve helped students save over $1 billion in student loan debt.


Our programs are built for real-world success at a fraction of the cost—hands-on, career-focused training led by instructors who support you from your first class to your first job.


We're growing! We’re looking for experienced medical assistants who are passionate about mentorship and shaping the next generation of healthcare professionals. Apply as a Medical Assistant Instructor, today!


Job Summary:

In this role, you’ll inspire future healthcare professionals by combining your medical expertise with your ability to guide and mentor students through practical, hands-on education.

(Note: teaching schedules may vary based on morning and/or afternoon class availability. Some locations may offer weekday evening classes).

Our focused, 18-week program is designed to provide accessible, hands-on education to students from all walks of life.

  • Enforce classroom management and ensure adherence to safety precautions.
  • Ability to convey curriculum and pertinent skills via lecture and hands-on demonstrations.
Requirements:

Requirements:

  • High school diploma or GED
  • 5+ YEARS (including months) as a medical assistant or related employment
  • CMA, RMA, CCMA credentials
  • Current CPR/BLS certification
  • Basic computer skills such as emailing, printing, scanning, troubleshooting, connecting to WiFi, etc.
  • A passion for helping others achieve their personal goals
  • Strong communication skills
  • Ability to commute to location(s)

Job Type: Part-time, In-Person


Pay: $25.00 - $27.00 per hour, depending on experience.
