Learning center boosts training at Forest Press

Abstract

A learning center is helping to boost training and uncover hidden talents among the workforce of a medium‐size printing firm. A warehouseman at the 90‐employee Forest Press, who had no formal information‐technology (IT) qualification but had practised extensively on a home computer, was given the opportunity to prove his knowledge at the learning center and progress on to the next course. He rose to the challenge and is now taking a graphic‐design course that could lead to a job in the firm’s graphics center.
