Job Summary We are looking for a Medical Billing and Coding Instructor. The Medical Billing and Coding Instructor works under the guidance and supervision of the Director of Education, the Program Director, and their designee. The main role of the Instructor is to oversee a student-centered learning experience. To promote the Instructor's success in the classroom, a set of eight faculty competencies has been identified, these are 1) Subject Matter Expertise, 2) Communication, 3) Andragogical Mastery, 4) Operational Excellence, 5) Teaching Diverse Learners, 6) Assessment of Student Learning, 7) Utilization of Technology to Enhance Teaching and Learning, and 8) Continuous Improvement. In addition to the competencies, Instructors must adhere to policies relating to Faculty Governance, Academic Freedom, Copyright, and Out-of-Class Work. As the main face-to-face contact with students, Instructors are expected to project a positive, engaging, and encouraging atmosphere with students, while ensuring that the students receive high-quality instruction in the classroom. The Instructor must utilize centrally developed materials, informed by representative instructor Subject Matter Experts, to assure that all students taking the same course, regardless of instructor, will benefit from the same support materials and that the mastery of concepts will be evaluated consistently, utilizing the same assessments. This allows the instructor to focus time and energy on the facilitation of the learning process. Central development of curriculum and learning materials in no way compromises the academic freedom of instructors. Instructors are encouraged to exercise their academic freedom by drawing upon their own education and professional experiences to illustrate concepts. The instruction provided in each classroom is unique due to the unique perspective and experience possessed by the instructor teaching the course. We embrace the use of technology to facilitate student access to learning materials whenever they wish, as frequently as they wish. In some cases, the amount of time a student spends in a physical classroom will be reduced, redirecting some time toward engagement with content within a virtual classroom. In other cases, the student may access content online, but the amount of time spent in the physical classroom will be unchanged. Delivery of content on a Learning Management System (LMS) allows students to access learning materials as often as they need to master concepts; utilization of the LMS to deliver content and assess learning also allows faculty members to monitor student engagement and performance so that intervention can occur when the student begins to struggle. Instructors must be comfortable with the use of technology to monitor student progress, communicate with students individually and collectively, and support students through the provision of constructive feedback and the provision of additional learning resources.
