Business Teachers, Postsecondary pay in Alaska and Nebraska
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Business Teachers, Postsecondary is $168,930 per year in Alaska. It is $88,690 per year in Nebraska. Alaska is 90.5% above Nebraska on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 25-1011 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 130 wage and salary jobs in Alaska and 530 in Nebraska. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
