Gyeonggawon, Recruiting Trainees for Practical Training in Quality Analysis Technology of Biopharmaceuticals

Gyeonggi-do Economic Science Promotion Agency

The Gyeonggi-do Economic Science Promotion Agency is recruiting the first batch of trainees for practical training in biopharmaceutical quality analysis technology.

The practical training in biopharmaceutical quality analysis technology is a bio workforce development project supported by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and organized by the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology.

In cooperation with six related organizations nationwide, including the Gyeonggi-do Economic Science Promotion Agency's Bio Headquarters and the Korea Bio Association, the project aims to train technical personnel in the fields of biopharmaceuticals and food, and support their employment.

The first training session will be held for three months from April 15 to July 12 at the Gyeonggi-do Economic Science Promotion Agency Bio Center.

Through this training, the agency plans to provide an understanding of the drug development and manufacturing process and specialized quality analysis skills, producing professionals equipped with practical abilities required in the field.

The main training contents include ▲quality control and assurance ▲standard operating procedure (SOP) preparation ▲recombinant protein production process ▲biopharmaceutical characteristics and quality analysis practice. Programs such as resume consulting and mock interviews to enhance employment capabilities will also be operated.

In particular, this training offers differentiated education to trainees through hands-on practice using equipment that is difficult to experience at schools, such as liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC), which are possessed by the agency's Bio Headquarters.

Over the past five years, the agency has trained 100 professionals through this training, achieved a 100% completion rate, ranked first in trainee satisfaction, and attained an employment rate of over 80%.

Lee Jong-seok, head of the agency's Bio Industry Headquarters, emphasized, "Despite the rapid growth of the bio industry, there is an absolute shortage of industrial workforce," adding, "We will do our best to nurture bio talent in line with Governor Kim Dong-yeon's policy to fully activate the Gyeonggi-do Gwanggyo Bio Cluster."
