Short description

The QbD Academy is a young graduates program that combines working, learning and intensive training. Last month, we welcomed 15 young graduates during our QbD Academy Week. Read all about it here!

 QbD Academy in a nutshell

What is the QbD Academy? 

The QbD Academy is a young graduates program that combines working and learning with intensive training. 

During QbD’s Academy Week, trainees attend a specialist training program to

  • learn the basics of life sciences consultancy,
  • familiarize with relevant methodologies,
  • and jumpstart their careers as QbD life sciences consultants.

After that, they get to sink their teeth in a specific project. Right off the bat! Of course, our experienced QbD consultants support them all the way.

Who's it for? 

QbD’s Academy is ideally suited for recent graduates who are eager to gain work experience. Think of ambitious people whose brand-new, shiny resume includes some of these keywords:

PhD, industrial, civil, bioengineer, industrial pharmaceuticals, biomedical sciences, biotechnology, biochemistry, chemistry, master in science, …

All they have to do is apply! We’ll try to find a match between their interests and the needs and company culture of (one of) our clients. We are looking for a win-win here!

 What are the benefits?

 The benefits are plenty. Young graduates:
  • get to bond at the QbD HQ and connect with other experts and consultants,
  • follow a best-in-class specialist training program,
  • get a taste of life as a life sciences consultant,
  • gain experience right after graduating,
  • and learn from the best thanks to continuous support by QbD experts.

The benefits for our clients? They welcome:

  • eager, ambitious, and well-trained graduates,
  • who know the gist of consultancy life,
  • and are continuously supported on all fronts!
Talk about a win-win!
