CBE's Uplift Training Programs

The CBE team have a long history in the design and delivery of tailored training programs to universities, companies and industry associations. Our experienced team are able to understand the learning opportunity and tailor the learning experience for the audience, number of attendees, subject matter and to the issues that are relevant.


In 2022, CBE was selected to create and deliver the GMP Uplift Programs, supported by MTPConnect’s Researcher Exchange and Development within Industry (REDI) initiative funded by the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF). Our GMP Uplift Programs provide participants with a real-world perspective on Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and are designed to assist with the interpretation and application of GMP into practice for those involved in human health products.The GMP Uplift programs address key skills gaps in the sector’s workforce and are aimed at upskilling and reskilling participants to drive GMP skills development and workforce training to support the growth of the sector.

With decades of experience in GMP operations and designing training, CBE set about to create a unique learning experience. This is supported by over subscription and our participant’s positive feedback with Net Promoter scores of +93 and +45 and numerous success stories of people transitioning from academia to industry, transfers into operations or quality roles and role promotions post completion of the training
