In my last episode about hidden jobs in IT, I ranked healthcare as the #1 industry.
During that episode, I mentioned something most people in tech have never heard of… Epic certifications.
In this video, I break down:
•What Epic is and why it dominates hospital systems
•How Epic certifications actually work (and why you can’t just sign up for one)
•Why most IT professionals don’t even know about this path
•The real salary outlook for Epic-certified professionals
•How to break into healthcare IT and position yourself for sponsorship
Epic certifications are different from traditional certs like Cisco or AWS. You must be sponsored by a hospital that uses Epic Systems, and once you’re in, it can lead to stable, high-paying roles in healthcare IT.
If you’re looking for a recession-resistant, enterprise-level IT career path that most people overlook — this is one you need to understand
