The M&R Companies are pleased to offer another two-day course in basic screen printing at the company’s branch office in Miami, Florida.

“When we debuted the course in April, the response was overwhelming, and the course quickly sold out,” said Andrea Bardenheuer, M&R’s director of Latin America Sales. “And the course itself garnered rave reviews, so we began to make plans for another class.”

The M&R Companies are pleased to offer another two-day course in basic screen printing at the company’s branch office in Miami, Florida.

As with the original, the September course will cover artwork, screen registration, screen making, screen cleaning, manual printing (hands on), automatic printing (hands on), garment curing, and shop layout. (A detailed list of course topics is available at http://www.mrprint.com/train.)

Training will again be conducted by M&R’s Patrick Lashbrook, M&R’s regional sales manager for the state of Florida. Patrick is an expert on basic and advanced screen printing techniques.

Glen Carliss, head of M&R sales in the Eastern United States, said, “Patrick combines a wealth of knowledge with years of practical experience and a passion for teaching virtually every aspect of screen printing. The people he has trained invariably praise Patrick’s ability to simplify the most complex issues and to impart the tips and tricks that increase their shops’ quality and productivity. This is an especially valuable course for those who aren’t content to learn by trial and error.”

The hands-on course will be held Friday and Saturday, September 22nd and 23rd. The course fee is $300.00. Lunch will be provided both days.

Seating is limited, so reserve your spot at the first opportunity.
