Job description

ONLINE ACADEMIC COACH (Higher Education, Graduate-Level Programs & Courses, Remote/Virtual, Part-Time as Contractor [1099])

Instructional Connections, LLC is a comprehensive third‐party provider of high‐quality instructional support services for colleges and universities offering fully online courses and degree programs. Institutions partner with Instructional Connections to deliver their asynchronous online courses at scale while maintaining academic quality and affordability. Many of these programs serve adult working professionals and are offered in accelerated formats.


Within each online course, and based on the university’s and program’s needs and requirements, an approved Academic Coach—also referred to as a Teaching Assistant, Course Assistant, or Instructional Associate, depending on the program—is assigned to support one or more sections throughout the term. Instructional Connections currently partners with more than 50 U.S. public and state universities across over 75 academic programs, supporting hundreds of courses each year.

MORE ABOUT THE POSITION


Academic Coaches provide essential instructional support to the faculty of record within fully online courses, assisting with day‐to‐day course management. Responsibilities may include grading assignments according to faculty direction, monitoring discussion forums, responding to student inquiries within 24 hours, tracking engagement, and meeting regularly with the faculty of record. In this model, the Academic Coach serves as a facilitator and grader at the direction of the faculty, while the university faculty member remains the Instructor of Record. This structure allows faculty to focus on course objectives, curriculum, and meaningful, high‐impact interactions with students.


Most courses supported by our Academic Coaches are accelerated—typically 5 to 9 weeks in length—and offered year‐round in fully online formats. With 4 to 7 term starts each year, Academic Coaches work in a dynamic, fast‐paced environment that aligns with the needs of adult learners and working professionals.
