How to Start a Cerner Career
1. Get Healthcare IT Experience
Get your foot in the door through hospital IT, help desk, or clinical informatics. You do not need Cerner experience yet.
2. Learn Cerner On the Job
If your hospital runs Cerner, raise your hand for super user roles. That is how most analysts got started.
3. Get Cerner Certified
Like Epic, certification requires employer sponsorship. You cannot do this independently.
4. Stack Project Experience
Implementations, upgrades, and optimization projects are what build your resume. Two solid projects will open consulting doors.
