We mentioned the PRINTING United Alliance Digital Color Professional Certification. You might be wondering how that works. Here are the steps:

1. Take the test

The Digital Color Professional exam fee is included when you register for this online boot camp. This 50-question exam is open-note and taken online, with much of its curriculum written by your certified instructors leading the course.

2. Make the print

PRINTING United Alliance will email you a test print that you will color manage utilizing the skills you've learned during the course. Once color managed, you'll print the image from your facility or office and mail it back to PRINTING United Alliance.

3. Get your certification!

If your print passes the evaluation, you'll earn your PRINTING United Alliance Digital Color Professional Certification!
