Independent contractor assignments generally begin at $50+ per completed instructional hour, with rates varying by location, program requirements, and instructor experience.
Most programs meet for approximately 1–4 hours per week over 8–10 weeks. Some instructors choose to teach multiple programs per week depending on their availability and available assignments.
Contractors may review individual opportunities and decide whether to accept or decline assignments based on their interests, availability, and agreed compensation.
Concorde Education welcomes applications from individuals interested in current and upcoming independent contractor instructional opportunities.
Applicants may be invited to create an instructor profile, provide relevant experience and qualifications, and apply for available assignments.
Depending on the opportunity, an interview, onboarding documentation, background screening, and school or site clearance may be required before an assignment is confirmed.
Applying, interviewing, or completing a contractor profile does not guarantee selection, placement, a minimum number of instructional hours, future assignments, or continued engagement.
These are potential independent contractor assignments, not employee positions. Final engagement is subject to assignment availability, qualifications, agreed compensation, applicable clearance requirements, and written confirmation.
Applicants should not provide criminal-history information unless specifically requested through an applicable, legally compliant screening process.
Concorde Education is committed to equal opportunity and encourages qualified individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences to apply. All applicants are considered in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws.
We provide in-person instruction with specialized instructors who are thoroughly background-checked and comply with local program standards. Schools that work with us don’t just receive additional staff—they get a team committed to delivering quality, highly personalized programs with oversight and guidance from Concorde’s management team.
With a mission rooted in educational excellence and innovation, we aim to exceed the expectations of every school district partner. Schools are facing a major challenge: many teachers lack the specialized knowledge or resources to effectively teach complex subjects. That’s where Concorde comes in. We elevate each program we’re contracted to run as if it were a core day program, bringing in specialized instructors and curated curriculums designed specifically to meet the school’s goals.
If your school isn’t working with Concorde, it’s missing out on the future of education. Let’s connect and see how we can transform learning for your students.
