Education jobs

A Kelly Education recruiter will work with you to determine the roles you are most qualified for, and to guide you through the process and requirements to get started in your state.

While every role in education has unique requirements, having an Education degree or prior work experience is typically not required for most roles.

Here is a general idea of what you can expect:

1. Submit application. Let us know you’re interested and a Kelly Education recruiter will follow up with you on next steps.
2. Fill out a prescreen form. This will be sent to you to confirm that a few minimum requirements are met.
3. Join a virtual group interview. Learn more about our available positions in your area and see if a job in education is a good fit.
4. Complete our online classroom management training. This free, required training will prepare you to be a confident in your new role.
5. Pass a background check. Fingerprinting and background checks are completed to ensure a safe environment for students.
6. Attend our paid orientation. Learn about the policies and procedures for working with Kelly Education and the education institution.
7. Start working!

Most positions allow for flexible schedules, however there is typically enough work opportunity if a steady schedule is what you are looking for.

Minimum requirements vary by state and district, and a Kelly Education recruiter will walk you through your specific requirements. But typical requirements are as follows:

• Must be at least 18 years of age or older. Depending on the education institution or position, 21 years or older may be required.
• Many states and institutions allow for degreed and non-degreed candidates to become substitute teachers. If you do not have a degree, you may be required to have completed coursework from an accredited institution or a GED and substitute teaching certificate.
• Obtain fingerprint and/or licensure clearance in select markets (certain fees apply)
• Letters of recommendation required for certain institutions.
• Complete Kelly Education's free online training (1.5 hours).

While we have many substitute, adjunct and tutoring positions available for those who prefer flexible work schedules, we have plenty of daily work opportunities to maximize your earning potential and provide you with steady work. In addition, we oftentimes have positions available for those interested in long-term roles or even full-time positions.

Training is important to us and we want to make sure you feel confident and prepared. Prior to your first work assignment, you receive free online training that is tailored to the work you will be doing. Free professional development courses are always available to you, covering a variety of topics that are relevant for substitute teachers, paraeducators, tutors, early childhood educators, food service, custodial, nurse, clerical positions and more.

As a Kelly Education employee, you’ll have access to ACA-compliant health care coverage; optional medical, dental and vision plans; retirements savings programs; free employee wellness programs; educational discounts and savings; employee discounts and rebates on top brands and services; and more!
