What Are CTI Jobs?
College Teaching Interns are contract teachers placed in Punjab’s public colleges. The program helps fill teaching gaps in those colleges.
CTI is a temporary internship, and no source we found promises permanent employment. If you prefer school-level teaching, our STI Jobs 2026 guide explains the School Teacher Intern program, which is separate.
CTI Vacancies Reported for 2026
Several websites report 8,084 CTI vacancies across Punjab. Because none links an official notice, we cannot confirm that figure. In addition, we found no official district-wise, college-wise or subject-wise vacancy list.
If HED publishes a college list, it will appear on the official portal. Check it there rather than relying on copied tables.
What a News Report Says About the 2026–27 Round
The Express Tribune reported on 23 August 2026 that HED allowed all 550 colleges in Punjab to recruit CTIs for the 2026–27 session. We have not seen the underlying HED notification, so treat these points as reported, not confirmed.
- Pay: Rs. 50,000 a month for intermediate classes and Rs. 60,000 for graduate and BS-level classes.
- Type of engagement: daily-wage basis, not permanent or contract appointments.
- Duration: seven months, from September 2026 to March 2027, with a possible extension for another year.
- Qualification: a BS, MA or MSc degree. No B.Ed or M.Ed is required.
- Residence: appointments come from residents of the respective district, and recruitment takes place at the relevant colleges.
- Leave: only gazetted holidays and Sundays, with deductions for absence.
The report prints the age limit as “10 to 40 years”, which looks like a typing error. Therefore, check the age limit in the official notice.
Eligibility, Stipend and Documents
Third-party sites disagree on these points, so none is repeated here as fact.
- Eligibility: Some sites list degree and division conditions, while others say the requirements depend on the advertisement and subject.
- Stipend: The news report above gives Rs. 50,000–60,000. A March listing on another site gives Rs. 40,000–50,000. Only the official notice settles it.
- Documents: The lists differ, so none is confirmed.
Check the current official notice for each of these before you apply. Meanwhile, if you hold a master’s degree and want college-level posts elsewhere, see our Cadet College Kharan Jobs 2026 and KUST Lecturer Jobs 2026 guides.
