The printing industry in Australia is worth $8 billion with more than 4,500 printing businesses in operation. It’s not only catalogues and pamphlets being printed. Thanks to 3D printing technology, printers are now helping to produce industry prototypes such as medical implants and sustainable fabrics.
This shift from traditional to digital printing means there is a need for new ways of thinking and a demand for innovative, adaptable professionals to continue to grow and transform the industry.
At the same time, the graphic design and sign manufacturing industry is one of the largest industries in Australia, with companies manufacturing a diverse range of products.
While traditional signage products are in-demand, there has been an increase in the digital signage market. This makes now a great time to enrol in a TAFE NSW signs and graphics course and learn the skills to take the industry forward.
