Oklahoma City is poised to become a destination for biomanufacturing talent, thanks to the Biomanufacturing Workforce Training Center (BWTC), a workforce training center program that is coming to the Oklahoma City Innovation District.
BWTC’s initiative addresses the issue of inaccessibility to the industry, as it is one of only a few like it in the country where students don’t need a degree to attend.
The program will help by training and retaining talent in the state, while also attracting new talent – creating hundreds of new jobs and providing researchers with technicians who are already trained in the basic lab skills.
