Job Description

Virginia Peninsula Community College changes lives, empowers students to succeed, and enhances the social and economic vitality of the region through high quality education and workforce training, excellent service, and innovative partnerships.

Non-Credit Adjunct Instructors are required to provide instruction, support, assessment, and mentorship to Virginia Peninsula Community College’s non-credit learners. Non-Credit Adjunct Instructors are required to fully participate in the mission and community of the college. The major emphasis shall be on teaching, by working with non-credit program participants in classrooms, laboratories, clinical sites, field sites, distance learning, individual conferences, and related contexts to help learners develop their interest and abilities to the fullest.

Teaching Load

This Non-Credit Adjunct Instructor position is part-time and contracted on a course-by-course basis, as needed, and will not exceed 1500 contracted hours per year. Contracts may include a combination of teaching contact hours, classroom preparation and closure activities; curriculum design and lesson preparation; participant advising and support; and participant assignment assessment and evaluation. Teaching schedules may include a combination of day, evening, weekend, and distance education classes based on course schedules and instructor availability.

This position’s primary training location will be at the James City County Trades Center located in Toano, VA. Other training opportunities may also be available at Newport News Trades Center and VPCC’s Hampton campus.
