Organisations supporting Xplor Document University The Total Print! Expo Master Classes, powered by Xplor Document University, are designed specifically to educate the UK print industry—commercial printers who excel in graphic arts, litho, and digital communications—in the latest market trends, technologies, and best practices. Our objective is to provide the most up-to-the-minute advice and direction through proven industry experts, opportunities to network with industry peers, and expansion of your current knowledge base. “Total Print! Expo is more than a showcase for services and equipment,” says Nick Craig-Waller, Marketing Director of Total Print! Expo. “It is a one-stop forum for the gathering, exchange, and analysis of information relevant to the production of short-run and digital print.” Attending the Master Classes provides you access to individual experts, their vast array of knowledge in this industry, and the chance to exchange ideas which may ultimately benefit you as an individual as well as your corporate environment. In combination with the products, technologies, and solutions found on the exhibit floor, you have unparalleled opportunities to enhance your knowledge, skills, and experience. James Shand edp, president of Xplor UK & Ireland Ltd remarked, “The key aspect of learning is the ability to understand and then apply the solution in a scale that fits your needs. Many of today’s market stories are aimed at the large corporate who have the investment and infrastructure to take advantage of such solutions but whatever they are doing is scalable into the SME market.” It does not matter how small or large your enterprise may be, solutions are offered which you can tailor to your own needs. Xplor Document University continues to expand on a global basis and has recently announced changes to its structure. Xplor International and Kodak have entered into an agreement for sponsorship of the Xplor Document University (XDU) programme to highlight the Xplor education agenda and promote the message of industry education. Their goal is to raise the level of understanding of current and emerging information delivery techniques and technologies. “No matter what part of the industry you work in, Xplor remains the most consistent provider of value in education for the digital document market,” remarks Pat McGrew edp, Kodak’s liaison for Xplor Document University. We would like to acknowledge a number of organisations who are supporting Xplor UK & Ireland this year, and we wish to express our gratitude for their continued enthusiasm, encouragement, and support.
