Abstract

The opportunities and challenges associated with establishing and sustaining successful chemistry-based technology programs were discussed at Equipping the 2015 Chemical Technology Workforce, a Presidential Event held at the Fall 2006 ACS National Meeting, kicking off an initiative by the same name. The initiative is based on the recent ACS report, The Chemistry Enterprise in 2015, and related discussions and will continue with a series of local collaborative workforce development programs.
