Entry Level Curriculum Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level curriculum manager job?
Start by building a portfolio of real instructional materials, even from volunteer work, coursework, or personal projects. Employers at this level look for candidates who understand learning objectives, can structure content clearly, and have hands-on experience with an LMS or authoring tool. A relevant degree in education, instructional design, or a related field strengthens your application, and internship experience in a training or curriculum role gives you a clear edge.
Which companies hire entry level curriculum managers?
Companies hiring entry level curriculum managers right now include IXL Learning, UCLA Health, and Springfield College, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from education-focused organizations, corporate training departments, and edtech companies that need help building or updating their learning programs.
Are there remote entry level curriculum manager jobs?
Yes, though on-site and hybrid roles are still common at this experience level. About 55% of entry level curriculum manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the broader shift toward distributed instructional design and content development teams. Filtering by work setting when you search helps you find the arrangement that fits.
Are these new grad curriculum manager jobs?
Yes, many of these postings are new grad and junior roles that explicitly welcome recent graduates and candidates with limited professional experience. A new grad friendly curriculum manager posting typically accepts zero to two years of experience, counts internships or student teaching toward that threshold, and treats a strong portfolio of curriculum samples as a substitute for a longer work history.
Which industries hire the most entry level curriculum managers?
Entry Level curriculum manager roles concentrate in Education, Technology & Software, and Government & Public Sector, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive entry level hiring because they maintain large, frequently updated training libraries and need early-career talent to help develop, revise, and organize learning content at scale.
