Professionals seek work-related bioscience education
Are you in a profession where an enhanced understanding of some topic in the biosciences might lead to a higher salary, more job security, a promotion, or perhaps just better job satisfaction? If so, CBET self-development courses might be just what you need. We can organize workshops, seminars or short courses for any professional group whose work intersects with the biosciences. This might include:
- Bioscience workers whose actions are regulated buy government agencies
- Lawyers or paralegals dealing with forensic DNA evidence or medical issues
- Emergency first responders wanting to know more about agents of bioterrorism
- Stockbrokers or financial planners needing to better understand the science behind the companies in which they invest.
- Lawmakers seeking to make informed public policy-decisions
- Journalists wishing to learn more about science reporting
- Persons in the food industry who want to understand more about genetically modified foods (GMOs)
- Anyone who could do his or her job better with more basic-science education
How it works
CBET’s faculty will create non-credit courses, workshops or seminars customized to the specific needs of participants. These are not “one size fits all” courses designed without your input or that force you to guess whether the content will be valuable to you. Because each course is unique to your needs, the cost will depend on the length of the program and the number of enrollees.
