  • North Carolina is home to Souths largest
    biotechnology community, countrys third-highest
    concentration
  • 1 in contract research organizations
  • 2 in ag-bio research development
  • 3 in bioprocess manufacturing
  • 4 in pharmaceutical companies
  • 7 of top 10 pharmaceutical companies have NC
    facilities
  • More than 32,000 employees in 228 companies
    producing 7 billion a year in revenues
  • 125,000 jobs projected in North Carolina by 2025

The Biomanufacturing Workforce
67 of biomanufacturing and pharmaceutical
employees employees have less than baccalaureate
degree Appropriately trained at community
colleges

Established Community College Support
forBiotechnology and Pharmaceuticals
  • State-supported customized training for New
    expanding industry (NEIT)
  • New business
  • Expanding business
  • Continuing incumbent worker training and
    education
  • BioWork training, curriculum programs for new
    workers

5
BioNetwork
  • Cost-efficient, effective way for community
    colleges to serve biotechnology cluster,
    biomanufacturing companies and North Carolinians
    by sharing information, innovations and resources
  • Initial funding largely from GoldenLEAF
  • Now state-funded through recurring appropriation

Capstone Center
  • Hands-on training for students from across NC
    Community College System
  • Managed by consortium headed by Wake Technical
    Community College
  • Temporarily housed at Wake Tech
  • Spring 2007, moves to NC States BioManufacturing
    Training and Education Center (BTEC)
  • Clean Room/Aseptic Suite
