Training and Education

TLMI will return as an official association partner of the fifth annual Digital Packaging Summit, a conference designed for senior managers and executives in the label, flexible packaging, folding carton, and corrugated printing and converting markets, looking to understand how digital printing will impact them.

AICC will be an association partner for Packaging Impressions' Digital Packaging Summit, which takes place Nov. 11-13, 2019 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. The event is designed for executives in the packaging industries interested in learning about current and future digital printing technology and software.

Paperboard packaging manufacturers across North America recently participated in the Trees Into Cartons, Cartons Into Trees (TICCIT) program, developed by the Paperboard Packaging Council. The educational program teaches young students about the sustainability attributes of paper and paperboard packaging.

Attracting and recruiting good employees can been a challenge. But through strategies and outreach, printers can find the right people.

The fifth annual Digital Packaging Summit will return to Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., in November, providing package printing executives an opportunity to network and learn about the latest digital packaging technologies. Those who are interested in attending can begin the registration process today.
