In October, the MLSC team joined members of Bioversity’s leadership and Massachusetts government officials to celebrate the 5th and final cohort graduation of 2024, marking one year of Bioversity operations. The cohort consisted of 11 graduates, bringing the total to 65 for the training program this year.
Bioversity is one of the innovative life sciences career training programs funded through the MLSC Pathmaker program. The Biotech Career Foundations program offers a curriculum focused on developing the technical and soft skills necessary to succeed and advance in the life sciences industry. Graduates of this course will be ready for employment in fields such as lab operations, facilities management, and supply chain operations. The MLSC has supported Bioversity’s Boston and upcoming Lowell training locations through $1.4 million in funding.
The MLSC Pathmaker program funds industry-aligned training programs that address critical skills and talent supply gaps and connects skilled, diverse workers with life science career opportunities in Massachusetts.
