FAQ
I’ve never taught before, am I qualified to teach?
We hire industry professionals and help them learn how to be good teachers. Our project‑based curriculum means fewer lectures and more hands‑on practice. Instructors must have at least 4 years of industry experience and a bachelor’s degree in a tech related field. An additional 4 years of outstanding experience and contributions to the field may be substituted for a formal degree.

Do I have to develop the curriculum?
You will use curriculum that has been developed and refined by previous Neumont instructors. We expect that you will share your individual perspective and experiences with the students to supplement the formal curriculum.

No. Our classes are in‑person as it makes for a better teaching/learning experience.
