Why Print Industries?
The recruitment, retention, and training of the future print workforce is the most critical set of long-term issues facing our industry.
- Labor shortages stretch well beyond the print industry, touching all levels of manufacturing.
- The print industry is underestimated, misunderstood, or even unknown to many career seekers.
- An aging production workforce threatens to slow this transformative process.
- A steep decline in print production school programs has disrupted a key pipeline of new hires.
To address these issues head-on, a team of experienced print leaders have
designed a workforce development and thought leadership hub called Print Industries.
Advocacy
To inspire parents, students, and all career advocates, Print Industries is demonstrating the impact print manufacturing has on everyday lives by sharing how “print is more than you know” through an innovative marketing program called Print is Everywhere.
Through presentation tools, printed materials, and outreach to career influencers, Print is Everywhere is connecting career seekers to the opportunities in print today.
