Kinesiology - Adjunct Faculty
for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's parse the posting.
Key info:
- Adjunct Faculty appointments located on Parkland College's Campus in Champaign, Illinois.
- Salary range: $1,406.00 - 1,586.00 per Equated Contact Hour (ECH) commensurate with qualifications and experience.
- Applications accepted until position(s) is filled.
- Adjunct Faculty teach part-time, advise and mentor students.
- Hiring needs dependent on student enrollment and course schedules.
- Courses may be days, evenings, weekends or online.
- Position is on-campus, part-time appointment covered by the Parkland College Part-Time Faculty collective bargaining unit.
- Information regarding department programs & majors: Natural Sciences Department website (link).
- Applicants must submit: online employment application, cover letter, resume or CV, copy of official transcripts from institution where you received highest degree. If hired, certified official transcript required.
- Essential Job Functions list: many bullet points.
- Minimum Requirements: Master’s Degree in Kinesiology or related field with 18 credit hours in graduate Kinesiology courses. Ability to learn the Parkland information system and new programs as technology changes. Maintains all professional credentials required to teach in area of discipline. Prospective new hires will successfully complete a post offer, pre-employment criminal background check with fingerprinting. The background check review includes, but is not limited to, exclusionary offenses per the Illinois School Code and Title IV of the Higher Education Act. In an effort to comply with SURS return-to-work restrictions for employers (40 ILCS 5/15-139.5), candidates for employment at Parkland College must either not be a SURS annuitant or must be willing to suspend his/her SURS annuity upon employment. This applies to all SURS annuitants except those receiving their annuity under either the Self-Managed Plan (SMP) or by lump sum payment.
- Application instructions: Apply using Apply Now button, applications not submitted through https://www.parkland.edu/careers will not be considered. Please monitor email... contact HR... etc. We must remove application instructions, boilerplate, EEO, etc. So we should drop those.
We need to preserve substantive information: location, salary range, teaching duties, advising, schedule info, department link, required application materials (but those are application instructions? The posting says "Applicants Must Submit An online employment application Cover letter Resume or CV Copy of official transcripts...". This is part of application requirements; but the instruction says remove application instructions. However, the list of required documents is substantive info about what to submit; but it's arguably part of application process. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove the list of required documents as it's application instructions. However, we might keep mention of transcripts? Probably remove.
We need to include sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have content for:
- About the role: location, part-time, teach, advise, mentor, department info, collective bargaining unit, maybe mention of Natural Sciences Dept website.
- Responsibilities: essential job functions list (classroom instruction, inform students, prepare syllabus, office hours, maintain records, submit reports, other duties as assigned).
- Requirements: maybe minimum requirements (Master's degree in Kinesiology etc, ability to learn system, maintain credentials, background check, SURS annuitant condition). Could be under Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe same as requirements? Could combine but we need separate sections only if content. Could put qualifications as "Master's Degree in Kinesiology or related field with 18 credit hours in graduate Kinesiology courses." Might be overlapping.
- Skills: maybe ability to learn Parkland information system, maintain professional credentials.
- Benefits: not mentioned explicitly. No benefits info. So we should not create Benefits section.
- Pay: we have salary range per ECH. So we can create Pay section.
- Schedule: we have info about courses may be days, evenings, weekends or online; part-time; hiring needs dependent on enrollment; maybe schedule info.
Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract details precisely.
About the role:
- Adjunct Faculty appointments are located on Parkland College's Campus in Champaign, Illinois.

- Courses available may be during days, evenings, weekends or online.
- Position is an on-campus, part-time appointment covered by the Parkland College Part-Time Faculty collective bargaining unit.
- Information regarding department programs & majors: Natural Sciences Department website (link). We need to preserve the link? The text says "Natural Sciences Department website . (opens in new window)". We can include as a link: Natural Sciences Department website. But we don't have actual URL. The posting likely had a link but not shown. We can just mention "Natural Sciences Department website". Since we cannot invent URL, we can just keep the text as is, maybe as plain text.

Requirements:
Maybe include: Minimum Requirements: Master’s Degree in Kinesiology or related field with 18 credit hours in graduate Kinesiology courses. Ability to learn the Parkland information system and new programs as technology changes. Maintains all professional credentials required to teach in area of discipline. Prospective new hires will successfully complete a post offer, pre-employment criminal background check with fingerprinting.

We'll put as list.
Qualifications: Could be same as requirements? Might be redundant. Perhaps we can treat "Minimum Requirements" as Requirements, and "Qualifications" could be something else like "Ability to learn the Parkland information system..." but that's already in requirements. Might be better to combine but instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we only need Requirements and not Qualifications. However we need to follow the instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It's examples, not mandatory to include all. We should include only those with real content. So we can include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills if we have distinct skill content not covered elsewhere. The ability to learn system and maintain credentials could be skills. But they are also in requirements. Could move them to Skills. Let's decide: We'll put Requirements as the degree and background check etc. Skills as ability to learn system, maintain credentials. That splits content.
Thus:
Requirements: Master’s Degree in Kinesiology or related field with 18 credit hours in graduate Kinesiology courses. (maybe also the background check and SURS condition? Those are more like requirements too). But we can keep them in Requirements.
Skills: Ability to learn the Parkland information system and new programs as technology changes. Maintains all professional credentials required to teach in area of discipline.
Pay: Salary range of $1,406.00 - $1,586.00 per Equated Contact Hour (ECH) commensurate with qualifications and experience.
Schedule: Courses may be during days, evenings, weekends or online. Part-time appointment; hiring needs dependent on student enrollment and course schedules. (Also mention on-campus). Could include that it's on-campus part-time.
We also have location in About the role.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
