We offer a comprehensive course catalog filled with hundreds of learning opportunities to help you at all stages of your career and personal development. Other than formal classes, your manager will coach you along the way and will help facilitate your on-the-job learning. In addition to your manager, you are encouraged to work closely with a mentor, whom you select, from our experienced professionals.

Coaching and Work Experience

We develop our people through a focus on challenging job experiences enriched by feedback, coaching and formal training. Our managers participate in learning programs to build effective coaching skills to develop and lead their employees. They are encouraged to facilitate learning using actual experiences on the job involving action learning projects where employees are encouraged to work in small groups with their peers.

Formal Learning

Employees are encouraged, and, in some cases required, to participate in live classroom experiences, virtual online courses and/or self-paced online courses.

Traditional Classroom Experiences

Live instructors in a physical classroom setting offer half-day to three-day programs with lively, engaging discussion. These courses align with our company's core behaviors and BioPharma culture.

Virtual Classroom

In partnership with eCornell, our virtual classroom courses provide access to Ivy League content in a format that combines learners from many Fortune 100 companies with Cornell faculty in a virtual classroom. Course participants have access to library reference guides, case studies, interactive exercises, and courses designed to contain the most recent, relevant research on a given topic. Many of these courses carry professional credits such as those required by the Project Management Institute. Virtual classroom courses take approximately six hours over a two-week timeframe and can be accessed from anywhere via link into the website.

Self-paced Online Courses

Select from the most extensive e-learning catalog in the industry. Gain knowledge on a variety of topics wherever and whenever desired.

Mentoring

We encourage employees to align with a mentor who will be able to provide career guidance and act as a "sounding board."
