Traditional adjunct college professors have been struggling to make a living from the few classes they have to teach each long semester, but for the last decade they have been failing miserably to support themselves because they never earn a pay increase and the university and college courses on the physical campuses that are available to them are limited by the need to drive between the post-secondary campuses in order to arrive in the classrooms. Now, the turmoil in the lower levels of public educations, which include secondary to elementary, resulting from budgetary restraint on the state level is adding teachers to the ranks of those intellectuals with earned graduate degrees, a Ph.D. or master’s degree, having a difficult time paying their bills with the income earned from delivering educational instruction in the physical classroom. The solutions for these educators is to take a new path with online teaching jobs openings and transitions out of the physical classrooms and into online college courses. Online bachelor degree programs and online masters degree programs have proliferated at a truly astounding rate since for-profit college put distance education technology to work over a decade ago. The public sector of post-secondary education is now embracing accredited distance learning programs with the same ardor since it is much less expensive to offer online college courses than it is to continue maintaining the physical plants known as university and college campuses.
The new wave of college and university students are very happy to not have to drive to a remote part of town and sit for hours in a poorly maintained physical college classroom when they can access multiple online college courses from their personal computers at work and at home. Today’s post-secondary student realizes that navigating the Internet to enroll in and online college degree programs and earning an accredited online accounting degree, an online military degree or an online undergraduate business degree is an excellent application of a growing number of digital tools. More to the point, perhaps, the academic administrators that must successfully address the educational needs of swelling student populations are fully aware that it is much more cost effective for the school to utilize the remaining budget monies deploying online degree programs taught by online adjunct instructors than it is to try to building out the campuses to accommodate the new and returning students.
This is extremely good news for academics at all level of the public academy needing a new path for their career decision to become educators with graduate degrees. As the online degree programs increase in number the need for academically qualified and technically adroit online college professors to fill the increasing numbers of online teaching job openings increases at an exponential rate. The most successful approach to locating online adjunct jobs with online college degree programs is to visit the over five thousand state colleges, four-year universities and community colleges that already offer their students some form of distance learning program right now and will increase the distance education offerings in the immediate future, locate the faculty application section and begin making applications for online university teaching jobs as often as is necessary in order to receive an invitation to teach online for the schools various online bachelor degree programs.
