Robotics Coding Instructor Opportunities

Assignment Scope

Depending on the accepted assignment, contractors may plan and facilitate engaging, age-appropriate robotics coding sessions; introduce students to foundational programming and robotics concepts through project-based, hands-on learning; adapt instruction based on student experience levels, site requirements, available robotics kits, technology resources, and program objectives; guide students through coding, testing, debugging, engineering challenges, and collaborative problem-solving activities; maintain a safe, respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate learning environment; communicate assignment-related needs or significant concerns with Concorde and school staff, as appropriate; complete a brief session completion form after each scheduled session; and follow applicable site safety, visitor, technology, equipment, emergency, and student-protection procedures.

Example Program Topics

• Robotics safety, equipment care, and responsible technology use
• Block-based programming using age-appropriate coding platforms
• Sequencing, algorithms, and logical problem-solving
• Loops, conditionals, and introductory programming concepts
• Debugging techniques and iterative testing
• Sensors, inputs, outputs, and basic robotics interactions, where applicable
• Engineering design, prototyping, testing, and continuous improvement
• Collaborative robotics challenges using LEGO® Education, Sphero, Ozobot, VEX, or similar educational robotics platforms
• Creativity, computational thinking, teamwork, and STEM problem-solving

Qualifications

• At least 60 college credits, where required by the applicable assignment or site
• Experience with educational robotics platforms such as LEGO® Education, Sphero, Ozobot, VEX, or similar robotics and coding tools
• Experience teaching, tutoring, coaching, mentoring, or leading activities with school-age students
• Strong communication, organization, and classroom facilitation skills
• Availability to provide services for the accepted assignment schedule and communicate schedule issues as soon as reasonably practicable
• Familiarity with Chromebooks, tablets, web-based coding platforms, educational technology, or related STEM instructional tools

Materials and Resources

Assignments may utilize school-provided robotics kits, Chromebooks, tablets, coding software, educational technology platforms, curriculum resources, lesson plans, engineering challenges, and other instructional materials, where available. Contractors may use their own instructional methods and materials when appropriate, safe, age-appropriate, lawful, and consistent with the assignment scope and site requirements. Purchases requiring reimbursement must be approved in writing by Concorde before they are incurred.

Application and Onboarding

Applicants selected to move forward may be invited to create a contractor profile and complete any required onboarding steps. Applying, interviewing, receiving an invitation to create a profile, creating a profile, or completing onboarding does not guarantee selection, placement, or future assignment opportunities. Potential assignments are subject to assignment fit, agreed compensation, completion of required onboarding, applicable background-check review, Fair Chance or pre-adverse action procedures where required, site-specific clearance requirements, and final written confirmation from Concorde Education. Some assignments may require background-check authorization, fingerprinting, agency clearance, site-specific documentation, identification badges, or other compliance steps before services may begin. Applicants should not provide criminal-history information unless and until requested through the appropriate legally compliant process.

Equal Opportunity

Concorde Education considers contractor applicants without regard to any status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law and is committed to respectful, inclusive, and student-centered programming.
