Print and packaging network

THE Print and Packaging Skillnet - a network training initiative funded by Skillnets Ltd and members of the Irish Printing Federation - was launched over the weekend at the National Print Museum in Dublin.

The training fund is worth €550,000 and will train some 1,400 employees from 29 companies over this year and next. Skillnets is funded by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment.

All 29 companies within the Print and Packaging Skillnet are based in the greater Dublin area and have all contributed to the overall funding of the initiative.
