As the country’s Centre of Vocational Excellence for Print, we’re dedicated to providing print courses and quality print training to companies and individuals alike.

We are committed to improving access to printing technology courses and print training for the print and packaging industry. In addition to our excellent portfolio of in-college courses, we have developed a range of award winning online learning (e-learning) packages – enabling trainees to access their print course from work and at home.
