The Flexographic Technical Association (FTA) today announced a new education partnership with TLMI (Tag and Label Manufacturers Institute), expanding access to flexographic training and certification programs for TLMI members.
The partnership reinforces a shared commitment to strengthening technical education and workforce development across the package printing sector. Through this collaboration, TLMI members will receive exclusive “affiliate pricing” to FTA’s FIRST (Flexographic Image Reproduction Specifications & Tolerances) Certification Programs.
FTA’s FIRST Certification Programs are built around industry-established specifications and best practices, providing companies with a clear roadmap for achieving process control and repeatable results.
Designed to deliver structured, role-specific training, FIRST Certification equips press operators, prepress professionals, quality managers, and implementation teams with the technical expertise required to drive print consistency, improve operational efficiency, and elevate overall production performance.
Additionally, TLMI has formed a partnership with Printing United in which TLMI members will receive exclusive discounted pricing on PRINTING United’s iLEARNING+ courses.
PRINTING United Alliance offers a broad portfolio of educational content through its iLEARNING+ platform, covering topics such as color management, sustainability, workflow best practices, sales development, and technical training across various print technologies. Now, TLMI members can access these programs at discounted rates, enhancing their ability to upskill teams across multiple disciplines.
