Forme parte de la creciente presencia de Excelsior en San Petersburgo y contribuya a dar forma a un programa innovador de tecnología y ciberseguridad, centrado en el mercado laboral, que combina la flexibilidad con el aprendizaje práctico. La Universidad de Excelsior está creciendo, y estamos realizando una importante inversión en educación y desarrollo profesional en la comunidad de San Petersburgo, Florida. A medida que ampliamos nuestro modelo de aprendizaje híbrido, estamos creando un equipo dinámico de profesores a tiempo parcial e instructores de laboratorio para dar soporte a nuestros programas de grado y posgrado (Máster en Ciberseguridad – MCY). Se trata de una oportunidad apasionante para ayudar a dar forma al futuro de la educación en tecnología aplicada y ciberseguridad, al tiempo que se trabaja con estudiantes adultos para desarrollar habilidades prácticas y preparadas para el mundo laboral.

Our hybrid IT and cybersecurity programs blend the flexibility of asynchronous online learning with the power of hands-on, in-person labs at our St. Petersburg site. As an instructor, you will guide students through both environments—teaching online while leading lab sessions that reinforce applied skills and workforce readiness.

Courses are delivered in an 8-week format, with the majority of content—including theory, discussions, and assignments—offered asynchronously online. On-site lab sessions are typically 3 hours, held in the evenings every other week to provide hands-on, applied learning that complements online instruction.

Depending on qualifications and program needs, instructors may be assigned to courses such as:

• Undergraduate IT and Cyber courses (e.g., hardware, networking, systems administration, cyber defense).
• Graduate-level Cyber courses (e.g., governance, leadership, advanced technical cyber operations).
• Certification-prep labs (e.g., CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, Linux+, CySA+, PenTest+, CEH, CISSP).

Responsabilidades clave:

• Facilitate engaging in-person and hybrid lab sessions aligned with course outcomes
• Demonstrate subject matter expertise through active engagement in discussions, learning activities, and applied instruction
• Create an effective and engaging learning environment through consistent and meaningful online presence and communication
• Reinforce online learning through practical demonstrations, real-world applications, and connections between theory and practice
• Guide students through applied learning activities such as:
  • IT hardware setup, configuration, and troubleshooting
  • Networking, systems administration, virtualization, and cloud technologies
  • Cybersecurity practices including system hardening, penetration testing, incident response, GRC, and digital forensics
• Challenge students’ thinking and support critical analysis across perspectives and settings
• Provide timely, substantive, and constructive feedback on assignments and lab performance
• Maintain clear academic standards and support student success through ongoing communication and responsiveness
• Maintain safe, functional, and industry-relevant lab environments
• Collaborate with faculty, site staff, and technicians to ensure a seamless hybrid learning experience
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of Excelsior’s hybrid instructional model
