The College was established in 1966 and has grown from an initial enrollment of 1,352 to its current annual enrollment of over 9,000 students in credit courses and more than 1,400 enrollments in fast-track workforce and continuing education courses.

Virginia Western Community College (VWCC) is accepting applications for a full-time, 12-month, restricted Advanced Manufacturing and Technology Faculty (Lecturer) in Workforce Solutions.

This is an established position in Workforce, intended to bring about the growth and success of students, the machining program, and regional employers. The incumbent performs a variety of instructional and program-related tasks to support the mission of Workforce Solutions. This is a hands-on teacher/advocate/ambassador position requiring the willingness and ability to engage stakeholders and grow a winning program, not a passive classroom teaching position. Success will be measured by key performance indicators such as course and program reputation, instructor evaluations, course completion, FastForward credential attainment, enrollment growth, stakeholder feedback, and success of graduates.

NOTE: This is a restricted professional faculty position subject to continued availability of funds and programming needs.

Must be—or become--certified in all National Institute of Metalworking Skills (NIMS) Level 1 credentials (11 credentials) within six months of hire. This position will require excellent oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills; ability to develop syllabi and exams; ability to develop learning strategies, curriculum and assessments; as well as the ability to work with students of varying abilities from diverse backgrounds. Teaching assignments may range from summer kids camps, to high school courses, to adult courses, preparing students for manufacturing jobs, and even professional development for local business and industry.

Additional Considerations:

Associate degree in a Career and Technical Education field preferred. Classroom Machining instruction experience, providing instruction in accelerated formats geared towards certification exam preparation. VDOE Teaching License for high school student instruction.
