Paid Birth Assistant Openings Austin (leading to apprenticeship)Austin Area Birthing Center (both North and South locations) is looking for Birth Assistants who desire to eventually become student with AABC. The ideal candidate is someone with birth/doula/clinical experience; if you do not have these requirements, please inquire with the Birth Assistant Supervisor. We ask that our CPM students start working as a paid birth assistant as this provides them an ample orientation to our clinic and practice guidelines and also allows us time to establish working relationships with the potential student. As a student at AABC you will have access to CNM and CPM preceptors from all over the world, two beautiful accredited facilities, monthly meetings with peer reviews, and a very high volume practice. Please contact our Student Coordinator, Leonora Colen at leonora@austinabc.com and the Birth Assistant Supervisor, Michelle Gold atmgold@austinabc.com with inquiries.

The ATMMTP is a state approved eight-part comprehensive midwifery education program that prepares the midwifery student for Texas licensure and the NARM CPM credential. Curriculum is based on the Midwives Alliance of North America standards for practice and "Core Competencies for Basic Midwifery Practice", and incorporates NARM educational requirements. These requirements are met through a variety of methods, including flexible but structured home and internet based coursework, required reading, research, and community projects. Each of the 8 parts, or modules, ends with classroom time in the form of mandatory workshops where review, application, integration, and examination occur. The program's expected completion period is approximately 34 months, including the required clinical component. For more information on the program or enrollment please visit the education section of the Association of Texas Midwives website.

Each of the program's 8 modules of study are designed to combine the flexibility of a distance-education school with enough structure to maintain momentum and progress.

Eight 2 - 3 day end-of-module workshops and skills labs with midwife-instructors ensures understanding of academic materials and core skill basics are learned.
