An adjunct instructor for the online MS in Nursing program is responsible for teaching specific coursework in a student's plan of study. Teaching within WSON means that evidence-based practice principles are incorporated into content at every stage. The role of adjunct instructor requires demonstrated knowledge in the specialization, as well as the competence to deliver that knowledge asynchronously and synchronously. There are four specializations:

• Primary Care Family Nurse Practitioner (PCFNP)
• Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP)
• Adult/Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP)
• Adult/Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (AGACNP)

Didactic teaching experience in a higher education environment is required, as is the ability to speak to current industry standards as communicated through various nursing professional organizations. A demonstrated comfort with technology is vital, as is an interest in working with a diverse student, faculty, staff, and partner community. The adjunct instructor must also be able to teach from a place of credibility, with at least one year of current direct patient care as a licensed nurse practitioner. The role requires impeccable organization skills, as well as written and oral communication skills. The adjunct instructor reports to the program director within their specialization.

Appointments are renewed based on need and teaching performance. Compensation is based on experience and academic credentials.
