Education and Training — Skilled Labor: Help Wanted!

There is material in the document about how to develop pilot programs for the graphic arts. When the document is completed, Katie will take it to legislators in hopes that they can take the updated info and get more funding for pilot programs, printing education, training and recruitment efforts.

Just think of the potential if we could stimulate a handful of printers and suppliers to go into schools and talk to counselors, to get involved in career days and to get the message out about printing. Just imagine if we had more of these Ambassadors for Print; let’s say 10 ambassadors in 10 states this year, then 20 ambassadors in 20 states next year. That’s the kind of progress that can be made!
