  1. BioNetwork Meeting Long-Term Skills Needs of North Carolina’s Biomanufacturing Industries and Biotechnology Cluster H. Martin Lancaster, President North Carolina Community College System 2003

  2. What isBiotechnology? • “A collection of technologies that use living cells and/or biological molecules to solve problems and make useful products”Glossary, North Carolina Biotechnology Center website • Essential part of modern pharmaceutical, health care, agricultural and other bio-science industries North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  3. . What Is a Cluster? Examples: Contract research Nutriceuticals Animal drug/supplements Cosmetics Medical devices Examples: Chemicals Detergents Paper & Pulp Overlapping Skills Needs Bioprocessing Chemical Processing RegulatedIndustries North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  4. Why Do We Care AboutBiotechnology? • It’s huge, it pays well and it’s growingfast, as demand for health care and agriculture products skyrockets. • By 2010, health expenditures expected to account for 16% of GDP, $8,700 per person. • Pharmaceutical industry is most profitable in the U.S., with net profit margins of 18% compared to median of 5%. North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  5. . What is North Carolina Doing Now in Biotechnology? • Home to South’s largest biotechnology community, country’s fifth-highest concentration • More than 32,000 employees in228 companies producing $7 billion a year in revenues • 125,000 jobs projected in North Carolina by 2025 #1in contract research organizations #2 in ag-bio research & development #3 in bioprocess manufacturing #4 in pharmaceutical companies 7 of top 10 pharmaceutical companies have NC facilities North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  6. Who are the Players? • Bayer- World’s largest plasma facility • Biogen- World’s largest LSM biologics facility • GlaxoSmithKline- Leading research-based pharmaceutical company • Wyeth-World’s largest vaccine facility • Baxter- World’s largest intravenous solutions facility • Diosynth- One of world’s largest contract biologics manufacturers • Novozymes - Largest industrial enzyme manufacturer • Novo Nordisk- One of world’s largest insulin facilities North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  7. Private, non-profit corporation established in 1981 by the General Assembly to provide long-term economic benefit to North Carolina through support of biotechnology research, development and commercialization statewide. North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  8. What are North Carolina’s Community Colleges Doing Now in Biotechnology? Partnership between NCCCS and NC Biotechnology Center • BioWork (Process Technician Training) • BioQuality • BioBusiness North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  9. Scheduled Maintenance Shutdown Training Local colleges partner with major industries for extensive training during scheduled shut-downs • Wyeth (Central Carolina) • Two weeks in May • 142 employees take BioWork, computers, teaming, leaderships, quality, more • Bayer(Johnston) • 12 days in June • 314 production employees take BioWork, BioBusiness, teaming, leadership, more North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  10.

Curriculum Programs in Industry-Specific Fields North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  11. What are North Carolina’s Community Colleges Doing Nowin Biotechnology? • Transfer agreements with research universities • Workforce and curriculum programs in related areas in industrial management, manufacturing, other essential skills • Health care, environmental science and agricultural programs that provide employees for end users of many biotechnology products and services North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  12. Seamless Model:Pitt Community College • Biotechnology part of new Science Academy for Middle Schoolers • BioWork starting Fall 03 • Biotechnology AAS with regional collaboration • Strong transfer relationship with bioscience/medical programs at ECU North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  13. What Do We Do Next? • Over next 3 years, conservative estimates from recent study say 6,000 workers with less than baccalaureate will be needed in biotechnology and biomanufacturing. • Access to specialized programs is now mostly limited to Triangle-Triad area. • NCCCS must match training to industries that need workers and people who need jobs statewide. North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  14. . BioNetwork • Plan for Sustaining a World Class Biomanufacturing Industry and Biotechnology Cluster in North Carolina • Consultant: Regional Technology Strategies, Inc. (RTS) • Funding: Golden LEAF Foundation North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  15. BioNetwork • Cost-efficient, effective way for community colleges to serve biotechnology cluster, biomanufacturing companies and North Carolinians by sharing information, innovations and resources. North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  16. BioNetwork: Goals • Provide continuous pipeline of new workers • Complement skills of dislocated workers,career changers to enter field • Upgrade skills of incumbent workers • Provide supplementary services to enhance competitiveness • Position NCCCS to become national leader, possible NSF Center • Provide ongoing faculty/staff professional development North Carolina Community College SystemH. Martin Lancaster, PresidentFifty-nine Institutions Educating and Training a World-Class Workforce

  17. BioNetwork: Structure • NCCCS Biotechnology Office • Central Training/Learning Center (university-based) • “Pilot plant,” with large-scale labs, processing, classrooms, with dedicated sterile suite for hands-on community college training • Supplemented by mobile training lab North Carolina Community College SystemH.
