PORTSMOUTH – The greater Boston area has consistently been the top location for biotechnology, revolutionizing vaccines and therapies for patients around the world. The pandemic has shown the need for rapid vaccine development and execution of the supply chain throughout the Clinical Phases – and as a result, the need for supply chain professionals is drastically outpacing the current supply.
UNH Professional Development and Training (PD&T) is meeting this demand with a new course offering: Biotech Supply Chain Management, offered live online and in person at our Portsmouth location on June 24. This program is designed for professionals looking to develop the transferable hard skills of clinical supply chain, while learning how to apply soft skills that are important regardless of a specific sector.
“The Boston area is home to some of the world’s largest biotech industries and a rapidly growing number of new companies,” explains Peter Horton, program instructor. “The demand for supply chain professionals will continue to increase. The foundational knowledge of supply chain gained in this program can benefit anyone, regardless of their role in the workplace.”
Throughout this one-day program, Horton will discuss topics such as Clinical Supply Chain Fundamentals, Clinical Forecasting and Scenario Planning, Biologic Resilient Delivery and Controlled Temp Network, and Clinical Supply Chain S&OP and Decision Making.
“I am very excited to instruct the upcoming Biotech Supply Chain Management Workshop. This workshop will help prepare those who are looking to learn more about the industry and make a positive impact in supply chain management,” says Horton.
Registration is $269.00 and is available here on our website. Contact Stacey Boyle at stacey.boyle@unh.edu for any further information.
