Substitute Instructor - Skilled Trades

Turn Your Trade Expertise Into Teaching – Adjunct Technical Instructors needed for our Skilled Trade programs

Lincoln Tech is looking for experienced technicians in Automotive, Diesel Truck, Electrical and Low Voltage, HVAC, and Welding to join our team as instructors. If you've spent years mastering your trade and want to pass that knowledge on to the next generation, we want to talk with you.

You don't need teaching experience. 

What You'll Do

• Teach hands-on skills and real-world knowledge using Lincoln Tech's structured curriculum
• Provide practical training and ensure students learn the fundamentals of the trade
• Evaluate student progress and communicate performance in a clear, timely way
• Help maintain shop equipment and create a safe, productive learning environment

What We're Looking For

• Minimum of three years of hands-on experience in your trade (not including teaching)
• Current certification or licensing as required by your trade and state regulations
• Strong communication skills – you can explain what you know in a way others can understand
• Comfortable with basic computer skills and learning new tools
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a busy, hands-on environment

Why Lincoln Tech?

This is a flexible, as-needed opportunity that lets you stay in your current role or supplement your income in retirement. You're not walking away from what you're doing now - you're adding something meaningful on the side. We provide the training, curriculum, and support to help you step into the classroom with confidence, even if you've never taught before. It's a chance to share what you know, stay connected to your trade, and see if teaching is something you want to explore further - all without giving up what you're already doing.
