Dear Prospective Instructor:

Thank you very much for your interest in teaching a non-credit course, workshop, or seminar through Virginia Beach City Public Schools’ Adult Learning Center. Below you will find a link to a General Information Sheet and a Course Proposal Form.

The general information sheet course proposal form will ask you a series of questions to assist you in explaining the course you propose to teach, and how you would conduct the course. Examples of course descriptions can be found on our website or in our current catalog.

Please tell us how many class meetings you think the course should contain, how frequently it should meet, how long each class meeting should be, and on which days of the week you prefer to teach. We recommend you limit the number of class meetings to the minimum necessary to adequately cover the course content. Shorter courses can help keep course fees reasonable and time manageable for adult learners.

The course outline can be very general at this point; just a single level outline telling us what you will cover the first meeting, what you will cover the second meeting, and so forth. This will be sufficient for us to make a decision on offering your course. You would prepare a more detailed outline later for your use in the classroom, if your proposal is accepted. Please return the proposal(s) as soon as possible, with a letter of interest and resume.

Thank you again for your interest in the adult education program. We look forward to learning about your course ideas and possibly working with you.

Sincerely,

Bonnie C. Mizenko

Director
