Who they are

You are looking at part-time adjunct nursing instructor work at Rasmussen University’s Fort Myers campus.

More about Rasmussen University

The role is built around lecture, skills/simulation lab, and clinical practicum—often in Mental and Behavioral Health, Maternal-Child, or general nursing—so your bedside experience is what students meet first. Schedules commonly land around 10–15 hours a week per course, on campus or at partner clinical sites, which leaves room to keep practicing while you teach. Our five postings show $60 an hour. Employer materials describe rates as competitive and finalized after your schedule is set; part-time adjuncts are also pointed toward continuing education benefits, a 401K, and an employee stock purchase plan. You do not need prior teaching experience—training is provided—though an active RN license and solid clinical time in the content area are expected, with an MSN typical. The Fort Myers campus is adding a weekend Practical Nursing (LPN) program, so local nursing education volume is growing. Campus culture is often described as friendly with supportive local leaders; higher up, people sound more distant and numbers-driven. Nursing Instructor reviews sit lower than the company overall, and adjuncts talk about heavy expectations and thin growth. If you want a flexible teaching load beside clinical work, this is a concrete place to weigh that tradeoff.

Curriculum emphasis on competency-based education, simulation, and clinical rotations across LPN through BSN pathways; internal Faculty Award for Nursing Excellence recognizes nursing faculty.
