The
IP3 Certificate course is specifically designed as an introduction
to the paper, printing and publishing sectors.
This
programme will benefit everyone working within these industries
as well as newcomers and those who wish to gain basic knowledge
in all three areas.
The
programme covers a wide range of topics imparting basic knowledge
of Paper, Printing and Publishing. The course will be run in
modular form over ten days (one day every week) and will be
taught in London, Leicester and Huddersfield. It is also expected
that IP3 will extend this programme to be taught in Scotland
and Ireland. The course is designed to give participants an
overall view of all three sectors from a practical as well as
an academic level. There will be conducted visits to a Paper
Mill, a Paper Testing Laboratory, a Printer and a Publishing
House or related company. These visits will allow the student
to experience a flavour of the workings in all three areas.
Students
are assessed continuously during the programme and this approach
will be carried out using observation, question and answer,
and will include short written assignments to ensure maximum
understanding and benefit for the participant. The course will
be conducted in a supportive learning environment and is suitable
for both new and mature adult learners.
On
successful completion of the programme, students will be
awarded the IP3 Certificate. With this certificate, the student
will gain automatic entry to IP3 at AIP3 grade. This qualification
is recognised throughout all three industry sectors.
This
course will be run three times a year, commencing in October
2004.
February 2005; June 2005; and October 2005. The cost is £950 and includes
tuition, assessments and certification, and all conducted visits. Places for
the courses will be limited to ensure optimum benefit for the participant.
