Love radiology but are tired with the pace? Keep your ARRT active, stay in your field, and trade 12-hour shifts for teaching the next generation. No curriculum writing from scratch. Just share what you already know.

Radiologic Technologist Instructor Opportunity!  Part-Time

This part-time instructor role lets you stay clinically connected (we run a lab, not just a lecture hall) while stepping away from the grind. You’ll teach what you already know: positioning, radiation protection, image critique, and how to talk to a nervous patient. “Think of this like being a clinical preceptor, but with a lesson plan.”

We'll teach you how to teach our curriculum to develop knowledgeable, skilled, and successful students who are ready for a new career in Radiography!

Balance direct patient care with teaching students your knowledge and expertise!
