CABLE - Consortium for Advanced Bioeconomy Leadership Education Details
Welcome to CABLE!The Consortium for Advanced Bioeconomy Leadership Education (CABLE) is a nationwide organization of 20 colleges and universities led by OBIC, the Bioproducts Innovation Center at The Ohio State University, and supported by the United States Department of Agriculture, National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA).CABLE addresses a pressing need to prepare technically skilled workers with comprehensive leadership skills to ensure the continued growth and success of the bioeconomy. The need for specialized programs in higher education is directly attributable to the enormous workforce growth projected for the bioeconomy in the United States. Moreover, this growth requires a new kind of leader with expert ability to manage complexity and rapid changes associated with technological innovations. CABLE's mission is to prepare, cultivate, and mentor the country's most promising technology-focused students to become these leaders of the future.Multiple departments at member universities make up the individual strands of a cable, but when woven together with other universities their strength is multiplied to form CABLE. This creates a new mechanism that leverages public and private relationships to enhance the advanced bioeconomy workforce development efforts of universities across the country.
