Instructional coordinators oversee school curriculums and teaching standards. They develop instructional material, coordinate its implementation with teachers and principals, and assess its effectiveness.
Instructional coordinators work in elementary and secondary schools, and various educational institutions, such as colleges, professional schools, and educational support services. They typically work year-round.
Instructional coordinators need a master's degree and related work experience, such as teaching or school administration. Coordinators in public schools may be required to have a state-issued license.
The median annual wage for instructional coordinators was $62,270 in May 2015.
Employment of instructional coordinators is projected to grow 7 percent from 2014 to 2024, about as fast as the average for all occupations. Employment growth is expected as schools focus on evaluating and improving curriculums and teachers' effectiveness.
