Whatever combination of printing devices your print business uses (e.g., offset, flexographic, wide format inkjet, digital toner/inkjet, sublimation, direct-to-garment) the G7+TM method of process control can help your shop achieve color success.
Training for G7+ Expert Certification can help print-production managers and other professionals responsible for ensuring color accuracy and consistency in printed products, such as brand managers, color managers, quality assurance managers, prepress technicians, and press operators.
The PRINTING United Alliance now offers G7+ Expert training in three formats: live, in-person learning; live online learning; and on-demand learning.
What is G7+ Expert Certification?
G7+ is the global industry specification for achieving visual similarity across all print processes. It is a measurable, predictable, uniform color management that process provides accurate and consistent color reproduction.
G7+ is an expanded specification that augments classic G7® with new logic, algorithms, and features. It preserves the value of existing G7 color-management workflows and works with all printing technologies that serve a wider range of markets.
A trained and certified G7+ Expert knows how to implement G7+ and G7 based calibration and process control into print workflows, analyze color and print-related issues and take corrective action to control systems and processes to achieve repeatable, predictable results.
Training for Expert Certification
The PRINTING United Alliance announced three distinct G7+ training formats to meet the diverse learning preferences and scheduling needs of print professionals around the world.
Live In-Person Training: This option allows print professionals to work hands on with real equipment under the guidance of the Alliance’s industry-leading G7+ Trainers. Attendees receive practical demonstrations and personalized guidance, so they can confidently apply G7® and G7+ principles in their own print production environments. The ability to interact directly with instructors is a key benefit of the live, in-person training.
Live Online Training: This training format enables students around the world to access interactive, online training sessions and interact with G7+ trainers without the travel expense of in-person training.
Trainees can learn in the convenience of their own workspace anywhere around the world. This dynamic training mirrors the robust curriculum of in-person sessions, complete with live demonstrations and real-time Q&A sessions.
On-Demand Training: The on-demand option allows participants to complete the G7+ Expert Certification at their own pace. Trainees get 24/7 online access to comprehensive e-learning modules so they can earn certification on their own schedules and in any location with an internet connection.
