Roland DG Australia Announces 2018 Academy Training Dates

Roland DG Australia, a leading provider of wide format inkjet printers and printer cutters for the professional durable graphics market, has released dates for VersaWorks: Beyond the Basics, the Roland DG Academy training course for 2018.

VersaWorks: Beyond the Basics has been developed to improve users’ knowledge of VersaWorks and VersaWorks Dual, increasing the efficiency and productivity of their output. Following on from 2017’s successful training sessions, the course will be held across the country once again in 2018.

Since 2009, Roland DG’s VersaWorks Academy training courses have been responsible for accrediting more than 600 students. Over 95% of those surveyed have said that they would recommend the course to others and many more have given positive feedback on how relevant, informative and easy-to-understand the course is. Vicki Wesley at Grove Wesley Design Art said: “Having used VersaWorks for [8] years, I haven’t used or known the program to its whole potential. This course was well worth doing”. Rakesh Kapadia from Rax Signs and Designs also got a lot out of the training: “There is a lot this program can do. You only know it when you do this course”.

Run by our expert Roland trainers, students will learn on Roland-supplied laptops in classes of 8 or less, with the trainer working closely with students to develop their skills and knowledge of the programs. The main areas covered in VersaWorks: Beyond the Basicsare:

  • ICC profile creation demonstration
  • Colour management
  • Printer calibration, set up and maintenance
