Adjunct Instructor
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only if posting has real, specific content. We need to extract substantive content. Let's parse posting: - Posting Information: includes Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, Working Title, Appointment Type, Position Number list, Vacancy ID, Full-time/Part-time, Hours per week, FTE, Position Location, Hiring Range, Proposed Start Date, Estimated duration of appointment. Many of these are metadata; we should not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. We need to preserve all substantive information; but we can drop boilerplate like "Posting Information". The substantive info: Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, Working Title, Appointment Type, Position Location, Hours per week, FTE, Position Location, Proposed Start Date, Estimated duration of appointment. Also "Hiring Range" maybe not given? It says "Hiring Range" but no value. So we shouldn't include if empty. We need sections: About the role (maybe from Position Information paragraph). Responsibilities (explicit). Requirements (Minimum Education And Experience Requirements). Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications). Skills (maybe part of requirements). Benefits (maybe mention of perks: professional training opportunities, retail/restaurant discounts, child care savings, performing arts rates). Pay (not given). Schedule (maybe Hours per week, FTE, class schedule: weekday evenings Monday-Thursday). We should include Schedule if specific content. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". So only include if real. Let's extract: About the role: Could be from "Primary Purpose Of Organizational Unit" and "Position Summary". That's substantive. Responsibilities: list given. Requirements: Minimum Education And Experience Requirements. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience. Skills: maybe part of requirements but we could combine? The instruction says use headings for Skills if there is content. Could extract "Strong communication skills, including the ability to effectively manage group discussions. Strong writing skills, with experience providing feedback on written assignments." That's skills. Could put under Skills. Benefits: The paragraph about University employees can choose from professional training opportunities, perks: retail/restaurant discounts, savings on local child care centers, special rates for performing arts events. That's benefits. Pay: Not given; do not include. Schedule: Hours per week 20, FTE 0.5, Position Location, plus class schedule: weekday evenings Monday-Thursday only, 13 weeks of content, live sessions once each week for 13 weeks. That's schedule info. We need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The page already shows it; we shouldn't add.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include specifics like numbers, etc.
Let's craft sections:

That seems to capture.

Check we didn't miss any: also "Section instructors will provide feedback on and grade student work, while also supporting student learning by establishing and communicating regular office hours and responding to student issues and questions within forty‑eight business hours." Already covered.
Also "Section instructor is responsible for maintaining reliable access to the learning management system (e.g., meeting technical specifications and reliable high‑speed internet access)." Covered.
Also "In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification document form upon hire." Covered.

- Experience with public health practice or research focused on understanding factors that contribute to public health problems.

But note that communication and writing skills also could be under Skills. However we can keep them under Requirements as they are listed there. The instruction says use headings for Skills if there is content; we could still have Skills separate but we might duplicate. Better to separate: Requirements for education/experience; Skills for communication/writing. Let's split.
Thus Requirements: education/experience only.

Now Schedule:
We have Hours per week 20, FTE 0.5, Position Location North Carolina, US, plus class schedule: weekday evenings Monday-Thursday only, live sessions once each week for 13 weeks (term 14 weeks with one week off). Also maybe "Proposed Start Date" not given; "Estimated duration of appointment 1-Year". That's also schedule/contract length.
We'll include schedule details.
Schedule
- Part‑time, 20 hours per week (0.5 FTE).
- Location: North Carolina, US.
- Appointment duration: 1‑year (estimated).
- Class meetings: live online synchronous sessions once each week for 13 weeks, held on weekday evenings (Monday–Thursday only).
- MPH@UNC term is 14 weeks with one week off for holidays/well‑being days.
We should not include "Hiring Range" as it's empty.
We should not include "Application Deadline" etc as minor metadata; but we could fold into a short paragraph maybe under About the role? The instruction says fold minor metadata into a short or drop it. We could include a short paragraph with metadata like Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, etc. But we already have About the role covering purpose and summary; we could add a
with metadata after that. However we must not repeat job title as heading. It's okay to have a paragraph with metadata.
But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; dropping metadata might lose info like Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, Working Title, Appointment Type, Position Number list, Vacancy ID, Hours per week, FTE, Position Location, Proposed Start Date, Estimated duration. Some of these are already captured: Hours per week, FTE, location, duration. Others like Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, Working Title, Appointment Type, Position numbers, Vacancy ID maybe considered minor metadata; we could include them in a short paragraph.
Let's add a paragraph after About the role maybe titled "Position details" but we cannot create a heading unless we have real content; we could just add a
with that info.
But the instruction says "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those as examples. It says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So we could add a heading like "Position Details" if we have content. But they gave examples; we could still use other headings if we want, but safer to stick to those examples. However we could embed metadata in About the role paragraph.
Let's incorporate Department, Application Deadline, Position Type, Working Title, Appointment Type, Vacancy ID into About the role paragraph.
We'll produce:
About the role
