As part of its Education Connection web portal, SGIA (sgia.org) now offers a Student Internship Board where SGIA members can post available internship opportunities for secondary and post-secondary students. The board will help connect printers with students who are seeking real-world experience in the printing industry at little to no extra cost to the company.

"Investing in an internship program helps develop young minds and inspire their career interests," said Ashley Arneson, associate manager of education, SGIA. "This is a great initiative for the sustainability of our industry’s future."

SGIA has also added a Support a School section to help educators find items available for donation that will allow schools to stay up to date with their technologies.
