What training means here

Training in printing spans the induction a new starter needs, the machine and process skills that build competence on specific presses, and the ongoing development that helps people move into more skilled or supervisory roles.

Types of training

• Induction and safety awareness for new starters.
• Machine-specific training on litho, digital, flexo or large-format presses.
• Prepress, colour and quality-control skills.
• Finishing and bindery techniques.
• Supervisory and team-leading development.

Good practices

• Match training to the machines and processes actually run.
• Combine on-the-job learning with structured guidance.
• Cross-skill people to widen cover for peaks and absence.
• Keep simple records of who is trained on what.

Common mistakes

• Assuming experienced hires need no familiarisation.
• No structured plan, leaving learning to chance.
• Training only when a problem has already appeared.
• Not tracking skills, so cover gaps go unnoticed.
