The CareerReady - QA/QC Career Accelerator Module provides immersive, hands-on training in biotechnology Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) laboratory practices. Offered through the University of Montana (UM) and the Montana Biotechnology Center (BIOTECH), this module complements the UC San Diego Extended Studies online didactic training by focusing on real-world laboratory application, instrumentation, and industry-relevant workflows.
Participants gain direct experience working in a controlled laboratory environment that mirrors current biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry standards. The module may be taken independently or as part of the full QA/QC certificate pathway.
Participants may enroll in two ways:
Noncredit participant – For individuals taking the course for personal or professional development who do not require academic credit.
Credit-seeking student – For individuals currently enrolled as graduate students at any institution or who have completed an undergraduate degree. Credits are recorded on a University of Montana transcript.
