G7 Colour courses are back in 2022

G7 colour certification live courses are returning in 2022, conducted by David Crowther of Colour Graphic Services and the Idealliance. A refreshed and updated program will provide certified training as G7 Expert or G7 Professional, reflecting all the latest developments in cutting-edge print technologies and colour management. Idealliance G7 certification is a recognised qualification across multiple print disciplines – offset, digital, wide format, flexo and hybrid.

The live Zoom online G7 course dates are 21 to 25 February 2022. Places are limited over the five days to enable quality, personal attention.

Idealliance, featuring instructor host G7 Live Online Training, led hands-on training. G7 Expert Trainer David Crowther will conduct this multi-day training focusing on G7 based print and packaging applications and G7 integration, maintenance, and process control across all print and proofing applications through cutting edge, online learning. In addition, attendees will receive an extensive practical hands-on demonstration, discussion, and collaboration to earn certification as G7 Experts.

The online training is over five consecutive half-days, 10:00 am to 2:00 pm AEST, and features leading print technology, workflows, and solutions, giving students the experience and ability to implement and replicate the processes used during G7 training in their facilities, using their technology.

 The training structure is designed to resemble a standard print workflow closely and includes additional content and supplemental resources from the G7 Trainers and Idealliance. The training comprises enhanced content on managing additional print, including meeting customer expectations in dealing with different substrates, uncoated vs coated stock and specialty coatings. Training content, reference material, and print standards have been updated to remain a leading resource for print and colour supply chain control experts looking to establish themselves as recognised industry leaders.

 Crowther says: "Training consists of a variety of components, including shared slides, video, whiteboard illustrations of critical concepts, press runs and print calibration simulations, and hands-on analysis. Students are strongly encouraged to participate in hands-on activities utilising their own colour management tools and solutions. It's very comprehensive, and results is certification as either a G7 Expert or Professional qualification."
