“…students who complete the high school biotechnology academy program and receive the BACE credential are substantially more sophisticated in their understanding of biology concepts than their peers with similar high school GPAs.”

“The credential and accompanying skills have allowed my students to enter the workforce, earn college research positions, and even become teaching assistants in labs on college campuses. “

“I encourage any biotechnology/ biomed instructor to give their students this opportunity to gain an industry recognized credential that will provide them with a competitive advantage over their peers.”

“A BACE-credentialed job applicant will certainly have an advantage because it mitigates some of the risks associated with true job qualification, provides reassurance of base competencies required for the industry, and helps in the design of training plans. “
