Alexandria, Va. – Idealliance, the international association of brands, printers, and technology companies, has recently completed their first international live instructor-led online training to certify G7 Experts. A completely full class of 29 participants, including color and quality control experts, prepress and production technicians, OEMs, and technology suppliers, attended the five half-days of training and successfully completed the certification exam to become globally recognized G7 Experts & G7 Professionals.

Reviews of the new online live training format have been exceptional.

“I was able to follow along easily, practice, and interact. I’ve spent years dealing with color in production and achieving incredible results for clients and working with G7 Experts. Having this certification solidifies the methods in place, opens up to new solutions, and will be much-added value to our clients!” said Michael Dequilla, of the Lowe Martin Group.

“Our team did a phenomenal job transforming the G7 program from an in-person experience to a live online training to allow G7 Experts to continue to learn and become certified without having to travel,” said Jordan Gorski, Senior Vice President, Idealliance. “We continue to encourage participants to utilize their own color management tools and solutions during the hands-on activities portion of the training.”

The class was filled to capacity; although online trainings could theoretically be any size, registration was limited to 29 participants to ensure direct support by Idealliance’s certified G7 Expert trainer & technical staff, and a samples kit containing printed test forms commonly used for G7 Master Facility Qualification and G7 press calibrations was shipped to every participant prior to the training.

G7 is the industry-leading standard for near-neutral and visual uniformity across all print technology. It aligns the global print supply chain through print alignment specifications and strategies—which reduces production cost and time—and print quality and consistency across the entire supply chain. G7 aligns Print Anywhere®.
