The Skill Standards
Below you will find the skill standards charts for the 10 chosen biomanufacturing occupations researched for these benchmarks. We have included the traits, characteristics, and behaviors for all biomanufacturing occupations as well as separate pdf files with the job functions (the largest areas of their work), tasks (subdivisions of the functions), and competencies (most detailed pieces of their work), as well as the tools and equipment used, the academic and technical knowledge required, and the level and type of knowledge needed to perform each occupation.
In addition, we would like to acknowledge all of the people and organizations who helped us compile these standards.
