I attended a 4 hour 1-2-1 training session in May 2018 and would highly recommend it. I had spent 4 or 5 months learning about screen printing from scratch via the internet and there is a massive amount you can learn from that alone. However, attending the session with Dave gave me hands on experience of the entire process from start to finish which was fantastic. We covered a huge amount of ground and I came away feeling really enthused about how to take my own project forward.
The beauty of this was that the session was tailored to my specific needs and Dave was more than happy to adjust the content (theory & practical) accordingly. For example, I let the team know in advance that I was only really interested in water-based printing and that’s exactly what we did on the day.
I learnt a huge amount in 4 hours and cannot recommend it highly enough. Dave is really passionate about what he does and is keen to share his knowledge and experience. It was really enjoyable, a great learning experience and great value as well. I’m sure this session would be beneficial for people with a wide range of abilities and experience.
Thank you to the entire team.
