Industry experts will discuss the papermaking process and describe the properties and application of inks and coatings. Prepress processes like CAD, layout, and graphics are explained in simple terms, as well as tooling, embossing, foil stamping, stripping, finishing, gluing, and windowing.

The curriculum concludes with an assessment of automated packaging equipment.
