2016 Print Futures Awards winners
The Printing Charity is calling for entries to the 2017 Print Futures Awards to help young people train for careers in printing, publishing, packaging and graphic arts or develop their existing roles in the industry.
People aged 18 to 30 years are eligible to apply for an Award (a grant of £1,500) if they are UK residents and: intend or are studying for a printing, publishing, packaging or graphic arts qualification; work in print-related organisations and want to undertake short courses to develop their workplace skills; are apprentices or studying for NVQs in print-related organisations.
Shortlisted applicants will be interviewed in London in early June by a panel of judges from across the industry sectors and winners will receive their Awards in London on 20 July.
‘The annual Print Futures Awards, which are a Printing Charity initiative, are part of our Education and Partnerships programme to help people gain qualifications and develop their workplace skills, as well as help attract and retain new talent in the industry,’ said Neil Lovell, The Printing Charity’s chief executive.
Closing date for applications is 30 April 2017.
