In the coming year, the in-house academy of colour management expert GMG will continue to offer its knowledge through multi-day workshops and free webinars.

GMG Academy provides knowledge and practical knowhow to allow participants to ‘succeed in their colour management and proofing goals’. It sits alongside GMG’s service and consulting offerings to ensure users can exploit the full potential of the company’s colour management tools.

The GMG Academy, being an excellence centre, is characterised by efficient learning. All classes are conducted in small groups and with lived workshop nature. Attendees are welcome to be an active part of any workshop, enabling them to immediately integrate learnings into their daily work. In doing so, they will always be guided by proven experts with many years of experience in the printing industry. By deliberately keeping the number of participants low, there is enough room for individual questions and, if necessary, sample projects can be brought along.

The workshop portfolio for 2020 includes three different courses, each covering a comprehensive topic area. The first is ‘Digital Printing – Process Control and Profiling’, which will take place 24-26 March and is targeted at all those who have either already introduced digital printing or who would like to implement it in their day-to-day work.

The ‘Color Management and Standardization’ workshop runs 29 September to 1 October and will deliver extensive basic knowledge on colour, proofing and standardisation in the printing industry.

‘Packaging – From Design to Print’ on 10-12 November rounds off the workshop programme. Attendees will experience the complete process chain of packaging production in a practical manner.

GMG Academy will also run regular free webinars throughout 2020. Every two months, 30-minute webinars will take place, in both German and English. Further details of the webinars and their topics will be released in early 2020.
