Partner to Expand Opportunities for Students

Through dual credit and the Southeast Nebraska Career Academy Partnership (SENCAP), SCC partners with high schools throughout southeast Nebraska so students can earn college credit and explore career pathways while still in high school. High school teachers are essential to making these opportunities possible.

Teach Dual Credit Courses

Bring your expertise to the classroom and help students get a head start on college. SCC partners with qualified high school educators to teach college-level courses through its dual credit program. As an SCC dual credit instructor, you can make a meaningful impact on student success while earning additional income for your teaching expertise.

Benefits of Teaching Dual Credit

  • Additional compensation: Eligible instructors may earn approximately $1,800 for courses with eight or more students. Compensation is prorated for courses with fewer than eight students based on enrollment.
  • Professional support: SCC provides dedicated support through SENCAP Coordinators, Faculty Liaisons, and Career Explorers to help instructors navigate the program and provide a successful student experience.
  • Student success: Help students build confidence, explore academic and career interests, and earn college credit before graduating from high school.
  • Meaningful partnerships: Collaborate with SCC faculty and staff to strengthen educational opportunities at your high school.

 

Instructor Qualifications

SCC follows established faculty credentialing requirements for dual credit instructors.

  • Academic transfer and other applicable disciplines: A Master’s degree or a Master’s degree with an additional 18 graduate credit hours in the specific content area.
  • Technical and trade disciplines: An associate degree or higher (experience or additional training in the field may be required).

Educators who are working toward meeting the required qualifications may have the opportunity to develop a Plan of Action outlining the steps needed to meet credentialing requirements. Specific requirements vary by discipline.
