FOR HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS
Faculty Qualifications
NWTC K-12 Relations and NWTC Human Resource staff
collaborate to align transcripted credit instructors with
the preferred level and credentials as recommended
for our full-time faculty. Since 2016, NWTC updated
the credentials for dual credit instructors and works to
provide professional development, mentorship, quality
assurance and other support mechanisms for instructors
that do not meet the preferred credential qualification.
Requirements for Teaching Transcipted Credit
We are excited that you would like to teach Transcripted Credit Courses for NWTC.
Courses are delivered at the high school, duplicating NWTC competencies, curriculum,
assessments and resources. Students can earn dual credit at the secondary and
post-secondary levels but must earn a “C” or better for the transcripted course to
become part of the student’s official college record. High school instructors are
trained and mentored by NWTC faculty. Transcripted credits are transferable to
other Wisconsin technical colleges and may transfer to four-year universities.
Long-Term Substitute Teachers of Dual Credit Courses
In cases of long-term substitute teaching for dual credit courses, the substitute
must meet the same qualifications as the originating high school teacher. This
includes a current DPI license in the appropriate area, other required coursework
or credentials, as well as meeting with NWTC faculty and K-12 staff to ensure
that approval has been granted. NWTC would define long-term substitution
as any time longer than a two-week consecutive time period. The district is
responsible for contacting NWTC K-12 Relations if this situation occurs.
