Education and Training — Skilled Labor: Help Wanted!

A new pilot program that is working extremely well is called “Ambassadors for Print.” Based in Virginia, it’s designed to recruit young people into the industry. Katie Gekker, who heads the program, talks to students, educators, parents, counselors, administrators, superintendents, school boards and economic development leaders. She is also developing a document about printing, which contains updated information about the industry and its educational and training programs.
