Bio-Link webinar: The New Core Skill Standards for Bioscience Technicians: Making them Work for Us

Presenters : Linda Rehfuss, Jeanette Mowery, Lisa Seidman, Elaine Johnson, Linnea Fletcher In 2016, the Community College Consortium for Bioscience Credentials, funded by a Department of Labor grant, published a set of core technical skills and competencies that are held in common across the bioscience industry subsectors of Bioscience Laboratory Skills, Biomanufacturing, and Medical Devices. Consortium partners recognized the need to focus skill standards efforts on fundamentals that all entry-level bioscience technician would need in order to succeed, regardless of industry subsector, geographic location or individual job description. This webinar will discuss how these new skill standards can be valuable ... Read more

Last year, five Texas community college biotechnology programs, worked together to produce a manual documenting how they assess student knowledge and skills related to the Texas Biotechnology Skill Standards. The purpose of this activity was to share what was being done by these programs to assess students, and to produce a manual that can be used by existing programs and new biotechnology programs for the purpose of producing employees that meet the needs of the industry across the state. All of these programs had already been recognized by the Texas Skills Standard Board (TSSB)... Read more

Linnea Fletcher

Austin Community College received a Type 2 Perkins Grant to develop and implement biomanufacturing skill standards. Last year, the Biotechnology Program developed a level 2 certificate in biomanufacturing. This year, the program received a grant to populate the courses with specific biomanufacturing skill standards so that it could be implemented Fall 2013. Skill standard development in Texas is different than doing a DACUM in that, in addition to developing critical work functions and corresponding key activities, the performance level for each activity is also developed. This means, not only are the work functions and key activities for biomanufacturing are specified... Read more
