Hey there,
We’re excited to introduce you to ISBA – the Industry Standards Biotechnology Assessment — a first-of-its-kind evaluation designed by Bversity to help you truly understand where you stand in today’s biotech ecosystem.
In a world where resumes and marksheets often fall short of showing real capabilities, ISBA is here to change the game. It assesses not just your domain knowledge, but also the cross-functional skills that matter in real-world biotech careers — like data literacy, business thinking, tech tools, and problem-solving.
This isn’t just another exam. It’s a personal benchmark — a mirror that shows your strengths, highlights your gaps, and helps you build a focused roadmap to grow. And for the industry? ISBA becomes a trusted way to find biotech talent that’s genuinely ready for the challenges of today and tomorrow.
The best part? Whether you're a student, a recent graduate, or someone preparing for a career switch, ISBA gives you a fair shot — free from outdated filters or hiring biases. All that matters is your skill, your curiosity, and your will to grow.
We believe every biotech learner deserves a chance to shine in the industry — not because of their background, but because of their ability. ISBA is our step toward that future.
So, if you’re ready to stop guessing and start knowing — if you want to prove your worth, sharpen your edge, and unlock new opportunities — then ISBA is for you.
We can’t wait to see where this journey takes you.
Let’s raise the standard. Together.
