    So I've started working at APSU (Austin Peay State University) in Continuing Education. Currently I am scheduled to teach ASL Beginner I this next quarter. I will probably be teaching more classes such as ASL Beginner II, etc.
    My question is, when it comes to my resume, should I simply put that I taught at APSU or should I mention that it was continuing education, or does that even matter since I am employed by the University to teach courses? I would like to eventually get a full time faculty job (not necessarily at APSU) and I feel like this teaching experience may help me at some point do that.

    I imagine it looking like this on a resume.

    Teaching Experience

    Austin Peay State University

    ASL Beginner I
    ASL Beginner II

    ETC...

    Is that honest or deceitful? Because I am technically employed by the university to teach these classes. Just looking for some outside input.

    Thanks!

    What is the continuing ed department/division like at Austin Peay? For many institutions, regular students are able to enroll in continuing ed courses and in many cases, "regular" professors teach in these programs so it's probably not necessary to completely "segregate" yourself. If the course has a prefix that indicates that it is a continuing ed course, I would definitely include it, though.

    Thanks!

    Thank you! Austin Peay as far as I can tell doesn't use prefix's for there continuing education classes. They are CEU granting however.

    hmmm....in that case it may be better to indicate institution, department, course i.e.

    APSU
    Department of Continuing Education
    ASL Beg 1
    ASL Beg 2
