Madison College Seeks Employer Partners for Biotech Leadership Grant Program

Madison College Seeks Employer Partners for Biotech Emerging Leaders Grant Opportunity

Madison College is currently seeking employer partners in the biohealth, biotech and healthcare industries to participate in the development of a new Workforce Advancement Training (WAT) grant-funded program focused on leadership development.

The proposed Biotech Emerging Leaders Development Program is designed to strengthen leadership capacity among current and emerging leaders through competency-based, experiential training. The program will focus on key leadership areas such as effective communication, emotional intelligence, conflict navigation and leading people and processes.

Through this initiative, participating organizations will have the opportunity to invest in high-potential employees while helping shape a program tailored to industry-specific needs. Madison College will manage grant writing, administration and reporting, and will work with partners to align training schedules with business operations.

If awarded, the grant is expected to cover approximately 50% of training costs, with participating employers responsible for the remaining portion. Employees will not incur direct costs for participation.

Organizations interested in partnering should be willing to support employee participation and provide input on program development and outcomes.

Employer partners are currently being identified, with interest requested by March 18, 2026.
