Instructional Coordinators Salary and Pay

The national wage ladder (BLS OEWS, May 2024)

Percentiles answer the question a single average cannot: where would a given Instructional Coordinators offer sit among all 210,850 workers doing this job? The survey top-codes at $239,200+ and withholds unreliable cells, shown as n/p in the table.

Employment and concentration

The occupation employed 210,850 people in May 2024, 0.14% of every job BLS counted. Texas is the largest employer at 30,270 jobs, and the leading three states between them hold 31.3% of the workforce. Concentration peaks in Idaho, whose location quotient of 1.91 says this work is 1.91 times as dense there as it is nationwide.

Read the ladder as a career path in numbers: $59,120 at the 25th percentile, $74,720 at the middle, $94,780 at the 75th. The full 10-to-90 range runs $68,850, a ratio of 2.5 to 1. Where a specific job offer lands on that range says more about the role's level than the occupation's headline median does.

Pay by state

Sorted by employment, the table below puts Texas first at 30,270 jobs; sorted by median pay instead, District of Columbia would lead at $102,010. Both orderings are printed in one table:

The occupation in context

Ranked against all 826 published occupations, Instructional Coordinators stands number 159 by employment and number 255 by median pay. Inside its own major group, Educational Instruction and Library Occupations, the group median wage is $76,210 across 64 detailed occupations, so this occupation pays 2% less than its group median, and it supplies 2.4% of the group's 8,947,690 jobs. In 19 of the 51 states with a published median, the state median beats the national median of $74,720, which is the single best quick test of whether this occupation's pay is set nationally or locally: a high count means local markets regularly outbid the national figure.

Metropolitan areas: where the jobs and the pay sit

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is the largest metro employer with 13,330 jobs, 6.3% of the national total. The first table ranks metros by employment; the second ranks them by mean pay among metros with at least 500 jobs in the occupation, because a three-person metro can top a pay table by accident.

Largest metro employers

Highest-paying metros (500+ jobs)

At the other end, San Juan-Bayamon-Caguas, PR posts the lowest mean pay among metros with at least 500 jobs, $36,960 a year, against $113,550 in Cleveland, OH. A gap that size between two metro labor markets is why the same occupation title can fund two very different budgets in two different cities.

What the median pay looks like as a budget

As a household number, $74,720 a year is $6,227 a month gross, $2,874 every two weeks, $1,437 a week. Moving from the 25th percentile ($59,120) to the 75th ($94,780) is worth $35,660 a year, which is the realistic size of the experience and specialization premium inside this occupation. The next step from a gross figure is a net one: run the $6,227 monthly figure through the paycheck calculator applies your state's taxes, the salary calculator compares two offers in any unit, and the raise vs inflation calculator tells you whether a nominal raise is a real one.

To place a real offer: a salary of $82,192 would sit between the median ($74,720) and the 75th percentile ($94,780), inside the top half but outside the top quarter of this occupation's ladder. An offer at the 25th percentile, $59,120, is $15,600 under the median, the typical size of the discount attached to entry-level or low-cost-market postings in this field.
