Instructor for Workforce Solutions – Trades

Workforce Solutions is accepting applications for instructors to teach in a variety of programming areas including:

• Welding
• Plumbing
• HVAC
• Electrical
• Heavy Equipment Operations
• Mechatronics

We offer scheduled classes at the college in an open enrollment setting as well as customized training for area businesses and corporations.

Please note: applicants must reside in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland or DC.

While teaching experience is helpful, it is not required; however, professional experience and appropriate certification are critical. Our students expect to learn from seasoned professionals who can share their knowledge and relevant experience in the field. Students can be a mixture of novices, partially trained, or experienced technicians seeking a credential. Teaching positions are primarily in-person, but occasionally instruction may be hybrid, if necessary.

Classes may be offered during the weekday, weekday evenings or weekends depending on the need. These positions are part-time and contracted on a course-by-course basis as needed. Our programs focus on credentials and skill enhancement rather than degree attainment. Classes may be offered at our Middletown or Fauquier Campuses, our Luray-Page County Center or an off-site location. Please see our website for additional information about Workforce Solutions and these programs.
