I have seven years experience teaching/training computer software applications. Four of those years I taught full time and had a salary. Now I am negotiating an hourly salary with a small consulting company to:
1. Train office productivity software, Web Development software, and A+, and Visual Basic.
2. To create new courses for the company.
3. To do some very light consulting.
I have no idea what I am worth and what they are willing to pay. They want my expectations. In the past at a training compay I earned $32,000 annually. At a community college I earned $34,000 annually. Now I have more experience and would like to earn more like $38,000 annually. However, I will be working part time in the beginning and have to come up with an hourly amount. Does anyone have a range that would be considered standard for the industry? Remember, this is a small, but growing consulting and training company.
Thanks.
