– Develop Skill Standards• Develop with Northeast Biomanufacturing Collaborative
with NSF ATE project grant; downloadable on-line at www.biotechworkforce.org
– Develop Capacity to Train the Biomanufacturing Workforce • Purchase equipment so each student has an opportunity to operate biomanufacturing
equipment and processes• Hire full time Biomanufacturing faculty and facility manager• Train all types of students from those entering the NHCTC A.S. Degree in
Biotechnology from high school, to the “ordinary community college student”, to displaced workers, to the incumbent worker
– Create Short Courses for Incumbent Worker Training• Establish the Northeast Biomanufacturing Institute• Offer three sessions/year of short courses for incumbent workers (and trainers,
including faculty)
– Create National Biomanufacturing Apprenticeship Program • Create with the Department of Labor’s Apprenticeship Office in Concord, NH and in
Washington, D.C.• Disseminate throughout the Northeast Region through the NSF ATE Biomanufacturing
Center, the Northeast Biomanufacturing Center and Collaborative (NBC2)• Disseminate nationally

The Piedmont TriadThe Piedmont Triad
• The Reality “Business climate has deteriorated over the past two decades; 37,000 jobs lost from industry once led by tobacco, textiles, and furniture.”
• The Vision “Business, government, and academia collaborating to create a framework for recovery and economic growth.”
• The Opportunity “Expand on North Carolina’s Biotech Corridor as the Triad represents the State’s second largest biotechnology business region.”
