Label Academy To Bring Education To Labelexpo
Labelexpo Americas 2016 is offering print industry professionals a choice of four educational sessions during the show. Being run in association with Label Academy, fo- cused master classes are to cover the topics of design and origination, digital label and package printing, and conventional label printing processes, with a workshop exploring shrink sleeves.

Label Academy is endorsed by TLMI, Finat and LMAI, and supported by suppliers Flint Group, HP Indigo, MPS, RotoMetrics, UPM Raflat- ac and Xeikon. The Design and Origination master class will be presented by Nick Khatker of Jennings Global and will run on September 14. The four-hour program will offer insight into the label origination, repro and pre-press processes, and explore in detail the progress of a typical job from design rough through to its arrival on the printing press.
