Vastex University Expands Training Schedule

March 02, 2011

Vastex Intl., Allentown, Pa., has expanded its Vastex University curriculum to include nine screen printing classes taught by six industry professionals, according to the company.

The one- to five-day courses are designed to help screen printers improve various aspects of their businesses, from art preparation and screen making to printing and marketing, in accordance with each student's level of expertise.

The FAST-START entry-level classes are geared toward students with little or no experience in screen printing, and cover the fundamentals of artwork preparation and screen printing in one-day sessions. The PRO-SCREENER intermediate and advanced classes range from a three-day, “A-to-Z” class — which covers all aspects of screen printing — to five one-day seminars that focus on advanced art preparation, boosting production and profit, simulated process printing on dark garments, water-based and discharge printing, and advanced screen making.

Additionally, the company is offering customized, on-site shop personnel training for three to five days on any desired aspect of screen printing.
