What is the typical salary for teaching at online college?We Answered:

online college that offers bachelor teaching degree?We Answered:
while i understand your need to work, getting a degree online isn't worth anything. would you let someone with a degree from a computer teach your child? i certainly wouldn't. can you manage weekend or night classes at a real campus? you will have much more success and will not be wasting your money if you can take classes at a real school.Brent Said:
Teaching online college courses as an adjunct. What do I need to start and what are some good resources?We Answered:
Like the poster above mentions, you'll need a minimum of a Master's degree with 18 graduate credits in the area you want to teach. If the college does not have specialty accreditation (like AACSB) on top of it's regional accreditation, they seem fairly flexible with the 18 credit rule as long as you have a master's and relevant experience.Doctorates are preferred.
Expect to apply to many schools before breaking in.
Good luck!

How do you find the college, university websites for online teaching jobs?We Answered:
"Online teaching jobs"? Er. If you go to the websites of specific universities or two-year colleges, they usually have a link to employment opportunities, where they give a list of job openings for instructors and professors at their university.Karl Said:
Will a fully accredited online Masters degree be enough to find a community college teaching position?We Answered:
I am going to be quite honest with you.There is very little chance that you will ever be hired to teach at a community college with an online degree.
Academia still looks askance at degrees (especially graduate degrees) that are not earned in residence, while being closely supervised by noted scholars in your field of study.
I realize that GGU is WASC accredited, but honestly, at the graduate level, mere accreditation is meaningless. Reputation of one's program (in terms of scholarly rigor) means everything.
If you wish to teach finance, your work experience in finance will serve you well, given community college hiring practices in that area. There is currently a high demand for finance professors, and substantial work experience is highly valued in this field. However, you should also hold a degree in finance that is earned in residence through a highly reputable department.
As to industrial psychology, even if your work experience is in this field, you will need at least an MA in psychology to teach this at the community college level. Many of your competitors will hold the PhD, so if you do not, your work experience in this area should be substantial.
I wish you success.
