Our courses may be tech-enabled, but we’re ultimately human-centric: each student taps into a vast community throughout their time with us, engaging with fellow students, industry-expert mentors, student advisors, and career coaches, the goal of which is to successfully transition students into their dream job. Through this hybrid approach, we’ve helped thousands of learners revamp their careers and, by extension, their lives, with hundreds of top-notch job offers received every year and a near-perfect placement rate for our program graduates.
Overview:
Springboard is launching an online Surgical Technician Career Training program for aspiring Surgical Technicians. Springboard is looking to hire an engaging Live Instructor with experience preparing students for the Tech in Surgery – Certified (TS-C) exam through the National Center for Competency Testing (NCCT).
The instructor will serve as a founding instructional partner and subject matter expert, helping shape live session content, pacing, learner engagement, and certification readiness for a first-of-its-kind training program. The ideal instructor must enjoy not only teaching, but also collaborating on live-session content design to build an exceptional learner experience from the ground up.
Responsibilities:
LIVE INSTRUCTION
•
Every week over 18 weeks, facilitate 90-minute learning sessions (max 20–30 students per session) aligned to the course’s didactic curriculum and TS-C certification exam objectives.
•
Each lecture will be held a minimum of 2x weekly to accommodate multiple time zones.
•
Lead engaging, motivational sessions that reinforce key concepts and build learner confidence throughout the program.
•
Prepare independently for live sessions.

Other responsibilities as needed.
•
