Athough this site is currently no longer being supported, during the period it was up, it attracted an average of 35,000 topic views a month from more than 60 countries. The 1,300 pages of content on the wiki was contributed by more than 120 registered users.  Among the unique features on the site was a plugin that connected users profiles with their Linked In profiles, so that they could post pages to Linked In groups after creating or updating content on the wiki.

The open source site, which was initiated by the principal, provided useful content a broad range of visitors looking for information about industrial biotechnology, biomass crops, biofuels, bioproducts and bioplastics and related subject matter.  It also had a section for company listings.


Both the American Manufacturing Association and the Professional Aviation Maintenance Association report a shortage of skilled technicians of hundreds and thousand of jobs.   They are just two industry sectors facing this challenge and with thousands of older technicians reaching retirement age, the trend may even accelerate.  Workers needed to fill these positions typically require a two -year degree or less and hands-on training on specialized equipment.  Other skills sets are also required, but these can also be met by community and technical colleges.  So why the shortfall?
