CASTL Elevate BC Bioscience Reskilling Program

The CASTL Elevate BC Bioscience Reskilling Program is a FREE initiative that empowers unemployed and underemployed youth to build rewarding careers in British Columbia’s rapidly growing life sciences industry.
In just 10 weeks, participants gain hands-on, industry-aligned lab skills, foundational knowledge of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and complete a four-week, on-the-job placement with leading bioscience employers across the province.
Biotech employers are invited to connect with CASTL-trained, job-ready trainees available for a 4-week, government-funded work placement at no cost. Employer interviews will be held on Thursday, January 15, 2026, at the BCIT Richmond campus, with virtual interview options available. To learn more or to register your interest, please contact Mauricio Romero, CASTL BC Training Administrator, at mauricio@castlcanada.ca.
