The Capital Area Partnership
The biotechnology industry is growing rapidly in Central Pennsylvania, and many employers are reporting difficulty in finding enough qualified employees. To succeed and grow in the 21st century global economy, biotechnology employers need to fill a variety of positions in their companies—from entry-level to the most advanced—with highly educated, skilled individuals.
The team of Harrisburg University of Science and Technology, area biotech firms, government agencies, industry, local community colleges, and area school districts, joined together to form the Capital Area Biotechnology Partnership, delivering a quality education to high school and college students, and science career-seekers. Courses taught through the program prepare area students to enter the biotech workforce, thereby decreasing the time companies need to train employees and ensuring biotech firms have access to qualified workers.
