About North Park
Founded in 1891, North Park University is a Christian university affiliated with the Evangelical Covenant Church of over 3,200 students from around the country and the world.
North Park University is located in the Albany Park neighborhood of Chicago, one of the most ethnically diverse zip codes in the United States. It is nine miles from downtown Chicago. The North Park campus has often been referred to as an oasis in the heart of the city – a place where students from urban, rural, and suburban backgrounds alike can call home. And all of this within the major metropolitan backdrop of Chicago: one of the world’s largest and most diversified economies, renowned for its museums and music, and voted best large city in the U.S. for four years in a row by Condé Nast Traveler.

North Park University offers a comprehensive English as a Second Language (ESL) Endorsement program for educators seeking to enhance their skills in teaching English language learners. The program comprises six courses, totaling 18 semester hours, and is available to both undergraduate and graduate students.
Required Courses:
As part-time instructors, adjunct faculty are contracted on a term-by-term basis. There is no guarantee of continuous employment. The adjunct instructor will teach to a diverse student population. Course timing is at the discretion of the academic department offering the course. The Adjunct faculty will be informed of the course's timing before being offered an official contract. In some instances, flexibility in course timing may be available. The list of duties below represents the minimum expectations of all faculty:
o Utilize the NP syllabus template, approved textbooks, supplemental course materials, and Canvas LMS.
o Submit a personalized course syllabus to the dean in electronic format at least one week before the course start date.
o Adhere to the printed course schedule meeting times and locations.
o While there is no formal office hours requirement, you are expected to be available to students outside of class by email
and by appointment as needed.
o Ensure that all assessments within the course are graded and returned to the students promptly.
o Mid-term grades must be submitted for traditional undergraduate classes.
o Final grades and all course obligations must be completed by the due date published by the Registrar each term, typically the week after finals. This is required for the adjunct assignment & contract to be considered satisfactorily fulfilled.
o Attendance records: Federal regulations require North Park University to certify for financial aid purposes that students who receive a non-passing grade have attended classes and to determine the last date they participated in an academic-related activity. Thus, faculty must document the last date a student participated in an academically related activity, which includes attending class, taking an exam, or other similar activities.
Compensation is by semester hour (credit hour). The starting compensation for adjunct instructors teaching at the undergraduate level is $3,400 for a four semester hour course.
