Some of the people you’ll meet here didn’t start with advanced degrees or a plan to work in the life sciences. Many were working in completely different fields, were new to this country, or were simply trying to figure out what came next.

Through free training programs across Central Massachusetts, they learned the skills they needed to step into the biomanufacturing field with no prior experience required.

Hear from people in the industry

The stories on this page are about how people have built meaningful careers in biomanufacturing and insights from others in the industry.

JT, AbbVie

I did not speak English [when I moved here]. I did a program at QCC…If you are looking for a stable job that is inspiring every day for you to go into work and feel like you have a career as opposed to just a job, this industry provides that.

Amanda, AbbVie

Baking at home is very comparable. You have to measure things out. You have to make sure everything is accurate and then you end up with the final product….You don’t need a biology or chemistry background.

Shawn, WuXi Biologics

A lot of what we do, you are going to get trained on. You don’t need a science background coming out of the gate. It’s a lot of working in teams, following instructions, and being trained. We get you there.”
