Competenz can provide training plans, support and qualifications — tailored to your business's specific needs.
The print programmes provide nationally recognised qualifications that combine practical workplace training with technical knowledge. They equip people with the skills needed to produce high-quality printed work across a variety of processes—including digital printing, offset and screen printing, reel-fed printing, binding and finishing, direct mail production and print industry management. Training covers pre-press preparation, press operation, finishing, colour management, quality control, and safe use of print machinery, with alignment to industry standards across multiple specialisations. The Level 4 print programme is an apprenticeship. The two binding and finishing programmes can be done indepentantly or as one apprenticeship.
