What are remote faculty?

Remote faculty are educators who teach and support students from a location outside of the traditional on-campus setting, usually through online platforms. They deliver lectures, create course materials, assess student work, and communicate with students using digital tools such as learning management systems, video conferencing, and email. Remote faculty can work for colleges, universities, or other educational institutions and are expected to maintain the same academic standards as on-campus instructors, while offering flexibility and accessibility for both themselves and their students.

How do remote faculty members effectively build relationships with students and colleagues without in-person interaction?

Remote faculty members often use a variety of digital tools—such as video conferencing, discussion forums, and collaborative platforms—to engage with students and colleagues. Establishing regular virtual office hours, providing timely feedback, and participating in online departmental meetings can foster a sense of connection and accessibility. While remote work may pose challenges for spontaneous conversations, proactive communication and intentional outreach help maintain strong academic and collegial relationships.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Faculty, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Faculty member, you need subject matter expertise, a relevant advanced degree (typically a master's or doctorate), and prior teaching or training experience. Familiarity with learning management systems (LMS) like Canvas or Blackboard, video conferencing platforms, and online assessment tools is essential. Strong communication, self-motivation, and adaptability help build engaging virtual classrooms and support diverse learners. These abilities are crucial for delivering high-quality instruction and fostering student success in a remote education environment.

Job description

Instructional faculty report to the Department Chair overseeing the course/content area they are teaching. This is a remote online part-time faculty position based within the continental United States.
Excelsior University provides fully developed courses with materials and activities to allow the faculty to focus on the students. Part-time faculty should expect to provide prompt and substantive responses to student needs, hold virtual office hours, assist in proctoring if applicable, offer timely formative feedback on student work, and demonstrate their subject matter expertise through constructive involvement with student discussions and learning activities. In addition, Excelsior looks for our instructional faculty to demonstrate a commitment to student success by supporting college engagement and retention initiatives, reaching out to struggling students and collaborating with faculty and support staff to ensure students have access to all available resources that impact success.
Duties and Responsibilities:
  • Implementing courses as designed by the University.
  • Bring individual knowledge and expertise on the subject matter in the engagement of students.
  • Engage regularly and substantively with students via email, announcements, and online discussion boards.
  • Provide timely, high-quality feedback on student work.
  • Hold regular virtual office hours, weekly.
  • Participate in ATI proctoring if applicable.
  • Keep the department chair apprised of any student or course issues.
  • Follow University policies.
  • Complete University-required training and attending required pre-term meetings.
  • Respond to all messages from students and the University within 48 hours.
  • Utilize provided rubrics to grade all assignments timely and provide narrative feedback that summarizes the strengths and areas in need of improvement.
  • Cultivate a caring environment that supports open dialogue, collaboration, and opportunities for scholarly growth.
  • Enforce all University policies listed in the Faculty Handbook.
  • Submit final grades timely, within 3 days after the end of the term.

Qualifications: To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
  • Earned doctoral or terminal degree in Nursing or related field from a regionally accredited institution.
  • New York Registered Nurse licensure or the willingness to apply for New York state licensure.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with ability to present information clearly, concisely, and accurately; friendly, persuasive speaking and writing style.
  • Experience in Nursing Education in areas such as teaching-learning strategies, educational technologies, writing course and module outcomes, curriculum design, assessment and evaluation strategies, and research, etc.

Rate of Pay:
  1. A flat rate of $1000 per credit for a section of at least 10 undergraduate students or 8 graduate students. Courses that fall under these student headcounts are considered low enrolled courses.
  2. Low enrolled courses will be paid on a directed study rate ($250/student for undergraduate courses and $300/student for graduate courses) based on the number of students enrolled in the course section at the close of late registration.

Remote applicants please be aware that the University is required to withhold New York state income taxes from your wages, as well as the state income tax, if applicable, in the state where you perform services. This is because of New York's "convenience of the employer" rule, which requires the University, as a New York employer, to withhold New York income tax from the wages of its employees working outside of New York if the employee's work is performed outside of New York for the convenience of the employee, rather than out of a business necessity of the University.
Equal Opportunity Employer
This employer is required to notify all applicants of their rights pursuant to federal employment laws.
For further information, please review the Know Your Rights notice from the Department of Labor.
