Renaissance Learning is hiring a U.S.-based remote Planning & Scheduling Coordinator I for a temporary assignment paying $25 per hour. The employee will help an education customer-implementation team manage scheduling, calendars, data, records, and reporting.
The assignment is scheduled for September 28 through December 31, 2026. It is a 40-hour-per-week role, ideally working 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Central. The posting says no benefits are included.
Renaissance does not list a college degree or a minimum number of years. Applicants still need working Salesforce knowledge, strong Microsoft Outlook skills, Excel knowledge, organization, and clear communication. Calling customers is an explicit duty, so this should not be treated as phone-free work.

What Is Renaissance Learning?
Renaissance is an education technology company serving pre-K-12 schools. Its products help educators assess student performance, plan instruction, and personalize learning. The company says its solutions are used in more than one-third of U.S. schools and in over 100 countries.
This coordinator opening supports the Customer Implementation team. The role helps arrange professional-learning sessions for customers and keeps the internal scheduling process organized. It is not a teaching, tutoring, or classroom position.
The official location is Remote – US. Because this is a short temporary assignment, candidates should evaluate the end date and lack of benefits before applying, even if the hourly rate and lower formal experience barrier are attractive.
Pay and Benefits
The listed salary is $25 per hour for 40 hours per week. At exactly 40 paid hours, that equals $1,000 before taxes in a full workweek, but actual pay depends on hours worked and the employer's payroll rules.
The role-specific posting clearly says Benefits: None included. A general Renaissance benefits list appears later on the page, but the company also says contractor and other nonemployee roles are not eligible for employee benefits. Applicants should confirm worker classification, payroll schedule, overtime rules, holidays, and any unpaid days with recruiting.
The job page does not say whether Renaissance supplies a computer, reimburses internet costs, or provides paid training. It also gives no completion bonus or promise that the assignment will be extended or converted to a permanent position.
Job Highlight: Planning & Scheduling Coordinator I
This is practical coordination work centered on email, calendars, scheduling requests, records, and internal systems. The employee assists other planning and scheduling coordinators and helps manage customers' professional-learning session needs.
Microsoft Outlook is central to the job, including email and calendar management. Salesforce and Excel are used to keep data accurate, track utilization, and produce information for Customer Implementation leadership. The employee also maintains documentation, coordinates logistics, communicates with internal and external stakeholders, and calls customers to encourage them to schedule learning sessions.
The role may suit someone with office administration, appointment scheduling, school administration, customer coordination, sales support, healthcare scheduling, or CRM data experience. It is a weaker fit for someone who needs part-time hours, permanent employment, benefits, fully flexible work, or zero customer calls.
Key Responsibilities
- Assist planning and scheduling coordinators with requests and logistics.
- Help manage professional-learning scheduling needs.
- Use Outlook email and calendars to coordinate dates and communication.
- Call customers to encourage professional-learning sessions.
- Track professional-learning utilization for leadership.
- Prepare or support scheduling and utilization reports.
- Update Salesforce and other internal systems.
- Use Excel to maintain and review operational data.
- Keep records accurate and complete required documentation.
- Communicate with internal teams and external stakeholders.
Qualifications
Renaissance lists working Salesforce knowledge; strong Microsoft Outlook proficiency, especially email, calendar management, and scheduling; Microsoft Excel knowledge; organization; clear written and verbal communication; ability to work quickly; and a proactive willingness to learn.
The posting does not state a degree requirement, certification, or minimum number of years. That makes it more accessible than many remote coordinator roles, but it is not proof that training starts from zero. “Working knowledge” means applicants should be ready to use Salesforce, Outlook, and Excel rather than merely recognize their names.
Customer calls and external communication also make professional verbal skills important. Applicants should explain how they have scheduled appointments, maintained records, organized calendars, handled follow-ups, or learned business software—even if that experience came from school, volunteering, a small business, or another industry.
Resume Keywords
- Planning and scheduling
- Calendar management
- Microsoft Outlook
- Salesforce
- Microsoft Excel
- Customer implementation
- Professional learning
- Scheduling logistics
- Data entry
- Records maintenance
- Documentation
- Utilization tracking
- Reporting
- Customer outreach

A stronger resume shows scale and accuracy. Examples might include the number of calendars managed, appointments scheduled, records updated, reports prepared, customers contacted, or deadlines met. Do not claim Salesforce expertise if you have only used another CRM; name the actual tool and explain the transferable workflow.
Location and Schedule
The official location is Remote – US. Applicants must be authorized to work for any employer in the United States, and Renaissance says it cannot sponsor or take over employment visas for this role.
The assignment is 40 hours per week from September 28 through December 31, 2026. The ideal schedule is 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Central, although the posting says hours are flexible to meet business needs. That should not be read as self-selected hours; it more likely means the schedule may shift when the team requires it.
The listing does not identify excluded states, required travel, overtime, weekend work, equipment, internet speed, or a training period. Candidates should ask whether they must be available on specific holidays and whether the December 31 end date can change.
Closing Notes
This opening is notable for its $25 hourly rate, national remote label, clearly defined assignment dates, and lack of a stated degree or minimum-year requirement. It can be a good short-term opportunity for someone who already understands scheduling, Outlook calendars, CRM records, and spreadsheets.
The central catches are the temporary end date, 40-hour commitment, no-benefits statement, and required software knowledge. Customer calls are part of the job, and the preferred weekday schedule is aligned to Central time. It is not part-time, permanent, benefits eligible, or verified phone-free.
