The World’s First Online Education Temp Service

Press release from: Global Academy Online, Inc.

/ PR Agency: University Promotion Marketing
Teacher Online Professional Services, also known as TOPS, is the first of its kind to offer schools, colleges, and universities worldwide professional temporary hire teachers skilled in online teaching.

The unique temp service is the brainchild of online education pioneer and Global Academy Online CEO and founder, Dr. Fred DiUlus. He brought Global Academy Online, Inc. to life in 2002 offering colleges and universities private label online curriculum and doctoral faculty.

With TOPS, schools, colleges and universities around the globe can order up temporary online faculty support to teach and develop online curriculum at all education levels from high school to grad school. According to marketing expert and Sr. Vice President LaFonda Oliver-Bowen, “the exponential growth of online education has created an overwhelming demand and vacuum for experienced and competent online faculty to support ever expanding classes at all levels of education.”

Many schools admit, says Oliver-Bowen, that they have great difficulty in recruiting experienced professional online educators quickly. “We’ve been outsourcing faculty for years to partner schools and TOPS now makes it possible to share a wealth of experience and our reservoir of online education experts.”

She goes on to point out that not every classroom professor or high school teacher is cut out for online work nor do many she says, particularly desire to learn how to do it effectively. Most aging faculty today have never taken, developed, or taught an online class so it is understandable that they would be reluctant to teach in an environment they are unfamiliar.

"Our considerable time in the field", states Dr. DiUlus, "makes us very experienced in determining what teachers at all levels must know to be effective online educators." Universities and school systems, he says, learn this painful lesson daily when they try to force and convert traditional classroom teachers to online education providers against their will.

Inquiries regarding TOPS are available from Global Academy Online.
