The opportunity:
Stepful is seeking a Senior Nursing Learning Program Manager to lead curriculum development and content delivery across existing and new healthcare education programs. This role will combine hands-on clinical nursing experience with expertise in healthcare learning to help Stepful graduate competent, confident, and compassionate practice-ready healthcare workers.
Two particular areas of focus include 1) improving the quality of clinical learning, including virtual and in-person simulation, preceptorships, and supervised practice, and 2) integrating content and learning methodologies that improves graduates’ performance, resilience, and retention in clinical work. The role oversees content-development projects, leads curriculum developers and subject matter experts, strengthens educational quality, and uses evidence and learner data to improve outcomes as Stepful grows.
This hybrid role is based out of our NYC office (in-office T, W, Th) and reports to our VP of Learning.
What you’ll do:
1. Core Learning Responsibilities
Oversee end-to-end clinical curriculum and content-development projects, from needs assessment and design through development, review, implementation, and revision. Curricula will include both nursing and other healthcare professionals.
Manage improvements to existing programs and the successful launch of new programs; maintain clear workplans, milestones, deliverables, and stakeholder communications.
Lead and coordinate curriculum developers and clinical subject matter experts; set priorities, provide feedback, and ensure timely, high-quality work.
Translate clinical workflows and complex technical content into accurate, practical, accessible learning experiences for adult learners.
2. Cross-Functional Collaboration and Business Growth
Partner with Operations, Student Success, Product, Engineering, Sales, and Partnerships to align learning content with learner needs, program delivery, and health system requirements.
Provide clinical and educational expertise for new program development, health system proposals, and expansion opportunities as appropriate.
Design for efficient development, consistent implementation, and scalable delivery while maintaining the highest educational quality.
3. Educational Quality and Innovation
Establish and maintain content quality-control processes covering clinical accuracy, currency, assessment alignment, accessibility, and consistency across programs, and work with program and compliance leaders to meet applicable educational, regulatory, accreditation, certification, and health system expectations.
Use Stepful’s Learning Quality Scorecard, learner engagement, competency, confidence, and completion data, and feedback from learners and educators to find where programs need to improve, then prioritize and put those improvements in place.
Pilot and evaluate evidence-based learning approaches and delivery methods, including online learning, skills labs, simulation, and blended experiences, and document and share what works so other programs can adopt it.
4. Thought Leadership and Representation
Contribute clinical and educational expertise to Stepful’s external presentations, webinars, professional forums, and publications as relevant to the role.
Develop constructive relationships with clinical educators, professional organizations, and health system partners; represent Stepful professionally.
5. Team and Professional Development
Build a collaborative, accountable team culture; coach curriculum developers and subject matter experts and share practical expertise.
Promote ongoing professional learning and feedback, and support the development of team members under direct supervision where applicable.
What you’ll bring:
Hands-on clinical experience as a Registered Nurse (RN) in an inpatient or outpatient setting. Your RN license does not need to be currently active.
Professional experience developing, delivering, managing, or evaluating education or training in a healthcare delivery setting, such as a hospital, health system, clinic, community health organization, or other care setting.
5+ years of experience in program management, curriculum development, instructional design, clinical education, or related learning functions.
Experience managing end-to-end learning content development and collaborating with clinical subject matter experts.
Working knowledge of instructional design, adult learning, and online or blended education.
Strong project leadership, communication, stakeholder management, and analytical skills, with demonstrated use of data to improve learning.
Adaptability, sound judgment, and ability to execute effectively in a fast-moving organization.
Bonus points if:
You have or have had an academic appointment.
You have worked in education technology or developed online/virtual learning programs.
