Creating a talented workforce to lead advanced pharma manufacturing into the future
Join industry leaders in a transformative webinar as they unveil strategies for cultivating a skilled workforce in pharma manufacturing, where automation meets advanced technology and the future of medicine is shaped.
The fusion of automation and emerging advanced technologies has altered the skillsets required for pharma manufacturing roles. For pharma manufacturers, attracting — and retaining — a quality workforce has been an ever-present challenge, but the technical nature of today’s pharma manufacturing jobs requires specialized skillsets.
Studies show that companies are more likely to retain talent if they offer a continuum of development opportunities, upskilling workers to meet the demands of today’s manufacturing environments.
In this webinar, key leaders from a designated advanced pharma manufacturing tech hub in the Richmond-Petersburg region of Virginia will share how multi-jurisdictional public and private sector stakeholders are working together to train a diverse talented workforce to build better medicine.
