Registered Behavior Technician Adjunct Faculty
Overview We are proactively recruiting at this time for openings expected in the future for our Adjunct Pool. The Accelerate U at National Louis University seeks qualified professionals for adjunct teaching positions as a Registered Behavior Technician Adjunct.

Availability:
New adjunct training begins in the month leading up to a new start and is typically around four (1 hour long) sessions over Zoom in addition to asynchronous follow up.
This is the right role for you if: You are committed to equity, access, and building economic mobility. You understand that economic disparity and income inequality are destabilizing forces for a true democracy. You know the power of a great education - one that catapults a learner into new, choice-filled opportunities. You also know that too many talented, high-potential people get left out, overlooked, or skipped over when it comes to opportunities. You want to break down those barriers, destroy those misconceptions, and prepare and connect extraordinarily talented people with the opportunities they deserve. You are driven to succeed. You are passionate about serving all Accelerate U participants including first-generation learners and others motivated by the challenge of becoming a Registered Behavior Technician. You want to take everything you know about Applied Behavior Analysis and translate it, through the Accelerate U curriculum, to others. You're agile, creative, flexible and engaging in how you teach - ready to figure out the exact right way to reach each learner. You believe all Accelerate U learners can be successful and that your job is to transform their motivation into the skills and mindset of a great RBT. You are a great teacher. You love every part of teaching ABA: the technical stuff, of course, but also the professional skills, cultural competency, and habits that are essential for success as an RBT. You're excited to teach across different mediums - synchronously over Zoom, asynchronously on our learning management system, one-on-one with individual learners or small groups, etc. You're eager for feedback and always trying to get better. You're excited to collaborate with others such as professional coaches, peer instructors, and the Accelerate U team. You want to create a community - a sense of belonging - for every learner. You understand learners are not passive enrollees in our program, but active drivers of their own learning. You are committed to creating a community in which learners support the learning of one another: exploring content together, encouraging one another, and holding each other accountable on their way to full-time work. You may even work along-side program alumni who have returned to be coaches or instructors. As an instructor, you will create a space for learners to build "social capital" among their colleagues so that they head into work with a meaningful, professional network.
