The Design, Print and Packaging Skillnet is a training network which works with companies in the design and print and packaging sectors to deliver training solutions which will improve business performance. Building on the work of the Design Ireland Skillnet and the Print and Packaging Skillnet, this new network will continue to provide excellence in training opportunities to our members. The focus of the Design, Print and Packaging Skillnet is to provide print training, design courses and packaging courses which will assist members to reduce costs and increase competitiveness through enhanced skills and expertise. All of the training provided is in response to the expressed needs of companies in our industry. Members can access our range of subsidised programmes and influence what programmes are provided. We are also able to offer a number of complimentary places on selected programmes to the unwaged. For more information on this option, please contact us today!
