Job description

Launch Your Career in the Operating Room
CNIM Academy — Paid Training Program | MPOWERHealth


Are you someone who wants to truly make a difference?
Imagine being in the operating room when it matters most — helping surgeons protect a patient's spine, brain, and nervous system in real time. As an Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IOM) Technician, you are the person watching over a patient's neurological function when they can't do it themselves. Your expertise helps prevent life-altering complications. Your presence means patients wake up whole.

If that kind of purpose calls to you, our CNIM Academy was built for you.

A Fully Paid Path to a Meaningful Career
Our 16–20-week paid training program gives you everything you need to step into the operating room with confidence:


• Hands-on clinical experience in real surgical settings
• Classroom instruction from experienced neuromonitoring professionals
• Direct mentorship from a team that is genuinely invested in your success
• A clear path to CNIM certification — with a 94% pass rate to back it up

You won't be thrown in alone. We walk with you every step of the way, from your first day of training through certification and beyond.


Join a Program That Sets the Standard
MPOWERHealth's CNIM Academy is the first and only intraoperative neuromonitoring training program to receive CAAHEP programmatic accreditation outside of a university setting. That means you're not just getting a job — you're earning credentials that are recognized and respected across the industry.


When you graduate, you join a team of highly skilled professionals who show up every day knowing their work changes patient outcomes. Surgeries go better. Patients go home. Families stay whole.

If you're ready to be the person in the room who protects what matters most, we're ready for you.

Benefits at MPOWERHealth as an Associate Technician:

  • Competitive salary while you train
  • Comprehensive health benefits & wellbeing program with opportunity to earn 100% employer-paid health insurance and $1,500 towards Health Savings Account company contributions annually
  • Competitive 401(k) company match with immediate vesting
  • Paid time off, company holidays, and sick pay
  • Access to MPOWERHealth University

This position is estimated to begin in October 2026.


As an Associate Technician, you will:

  • Provide intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) in brain and spine surgeries to assist the surgeon in mitigating risk to the patient's nervous system.

  • Attend and actively participate in all training sessions, workshops, and lectures.
  • Learn to operate and troubleshoot IONM equipment and software.
  • Perform IONM modalities (MEPs, SSEPs, EMG, TOF) in surgery.
  • Collaborate with surgical and anesthesia teams to provide optimal patient care.
  • Maintain accurate records of monitoring results and patient information.
  • Continuously develop and refine skills and knowledge in IONM techniques and technology.
  • Participate in continuing education and professional development opportunities.

Requirements:

  • Bachelors or masters degree in a related field (e.g., biology, neuroscience, psychology).
  • Strong academic background in anatomy and physiology.
  • Must have a valid driver’s license and Certification in Basic Life Support (BLS).
  • Ability to transport and set up neuromonitoring equipment (totaling 50lbs) in the OR in a timely fashion.

We’re looking for you to bring:

  • Ability to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills.
  • Microsoft Office Suite expertise with typing speed of at least 40 WPM.
  • Attention to detail and strong analytical skills.
  • Willingness to work flexible hours and the ability to work on call.
  • Previous experience in healthcare is a plus.
