About the CABP

AAAB’s CABP was developed in response to industry challenges associated with identifying and retaining
qualified employees involved with biotherapies. It is a mark of distinction benefiting the entire field by
establishing minimum standards of competence, identifying proficient professionals, and advancing safety and quality. Candidates must meet pre-requisites and obtain a passing grade on the 24/7 on-
demand, computer-based online exam, demonstrating their competence in seven key domains:

  • Biotherapies in the Patient Care Ecosystem
  • Biotherapies Science and Ethics
  • Operations and Equipment
  • Biotherapies Development Lifecycle
  • Manufacturing
  • Quality Systems
  • The Regulatory Environment

The first cohort of CABPs was certified in December 2022, and there are now more than 125 CABPs in over ten countries worldwide. The full CABP registry is available for viewing on the AABB website.
