Thank you for your interest in joining our Communication and Theatre team! We hope this information is helpful in learning more about the adjunct instructor position. Please email Angela Smedley at amsmedley@waketech.edu with additional questions.

# data[].attributes.body
Our accrediting body requires that instructors hold a Master's degree with at least 18 hours in the subject they will be teaching. Graduate coursework is looked at closely to ensure compliance with this regulation. This means that COM faculty must have 18 graduate hours of courses from a Communication graduate program and DRA faculty must have 18 graduate hours of courses from a Drama/Theatre graduate program. Unfortunately, coursework that is interdisciplinary or not labeled as Communication or Drama/Theatre is often rejected by our auditors. Please know that we wish we could be more flexible with this policy!

Can adjunct instructors teach online classes?

# data[].attributes.body
In order to teach online classes at Wake Tech, you must first earn an EPIC online teaching certification. This course is provided free of charge to all Wake Tech employees, and current adjunct instructors are compensated for the thirty hours required to complete the course. You can find more information at: waketech.edu/epic. In rare circumstances, instructors are approved to teach online without EPIC certification, but they must be enrolled in the EPIC program and working towards certificate completion. In general, we prefer for faculty to teach seated classes with us prior to teaching online.

Our class caps are currently 22 students for each online section and 24 students for each seated section.
