Why Simulators are a good solution
Implementation in Education
Over hundreds of schools and training centers use Sinapse print simulators all over the world.
We suggest that you have a look at this short presentation prepared by Mrs Eva Paap from HdM Stuttgart, one of the major German Graphic Arts Schools. In this she explains how the school integrated the sheetfed and heatset simulators in its curriculum. The Hdm currently has 4 sheetfed and 2 heatset simulators.
Industry Certification Certificates
Sinapse has partnered with major industry organisations to create a set of Training Certificates.
These certificate go hand-in-hand with the trainee workbooks, and certify that :
The trainee has completed all the assignments in the workbook (familiarisation with the print process, color and register adjustment and measurement, quality control, procedures, etc.
The trainee has passed a ‘live’ exam with a Sinapse Certified Trainer and satisfactory solved the problems in this examination.

ASA
ASA stands for Automatic Session Analysis.
This new training tool lets you automatically compare the trainee session history (how they analysed and solved a problem) with the “recommended” solution.
What is a Print Simulator
The simulator is a diagnostic and training program that utilizes custom-designed software packages to interactively practice problem-solving techniques off-press. Included in the software is a monitoring and cost analysis that allows the training process to correlate effective press utilization versus the theoretical cost on a "live" press.
