FE teacher/lecturer - US equivalent?
 
Just wondering if anyone knew the rough US equivalent of a teacher in the post-compulsory/FE sector?

The term you are looking for is "continuing education" which is primarily done at what are known as "community colleges" that offer 2-year "associate degrees" frequently in trades, though some graduates do go on to full 4-year universities with their credits carrying over.
