Responsibilities

  • Carry a clinical and skills lab teaching load of approximately two days per week at clinical and/or simulation lab sites
  • Model the standard of instruction you'll hold your team to — show what excellent clinical teaching looks like in practice
  • Transition to a backup clinical instructor role as the team grows, providing coverage when instructors are unavailable
  • Recruit, hire, and onboard clinical instructors for Stepful's nursing programs
  • Train new clinical instructors and continue developing them once they're in the field
  • Serve as the first point of contact for clinical faculty questions, issues, and escalations
  • Experiment with AI tools and documentation systems to improve how instructors are onboarded and supported over time
  • Build and maintain working relationships with clinical site partners, including unit leadership and staff
  • Secure new clinical partners as program growth requires
  • Act as the liaison between clinical instructors and site staff, resolving issues before they reach students
  • Conduct site visits to assess acuity, patient population, and learning opportunities, and use that assessment to match sites to program objectives
  • Stay current with clinical site policies and procedures by attending agency-provided learning experiences and updates
  • Handle onboarding logistics for new clinical instructors at each site — documentation, account setup, computer access, medication administration access, badging, and on-site introductions
  • Manage clinical site assignments and rotation scheduling across cohorts, maintaining a master schedule that captures student placements, faculty assignments, and unit locations
  • Confirm coverage for every scheduled clinical day, including securing substitutes when needed and notifying students promptly of any changes
  • Arrange computer access, badging, and orientation for students at clinical agencies as availability permits
  • Maintain current agency availability records and adjust schedules as availability changes
  • Keep the Program Director and Dean of Nursing apprised of changes in clinical procedures, protocols, and site updates
  • Collect and maintain clinical paperwork, student and faculty compliance records, clinical evaluations, and Board of Nursing documentation
  • Track clinical instructor credentialing, health requirements, and site-specific clearances
  • Manage electronic clinical requirement tracking (health records, CPR certifications, clearances) and communicate proactively when student or faculty records are out of date
  • Collaborate with the Program Director on clinical agency evaluations for quality improvement and accreditation purposes
  • Ensure clinical records are audit-ready for Board of Nursing and accreditation review at all times

Qualifications

  • Active, unrestricted compact (multistate) RN license, or eligibility to obtain one
  • Master’s degree in nursing (required for accreditation purposes)
  • 2+ years teaching clinicals in a nursing education program
  • Experience training, onboarding, or mentoring clinical instructors or preceptors

  • Ability to meet clinical site health and immunization requirements, including required vaccinations and background screening
  • Willingness to travel up to 50%
  • Strong organizational skills and comfort managing schedules, documentation, and logistics across multiple sites
