X-Rite Incorporated, a global leader in color science and technology, and its subsidiary Pantone announced that its popular Fundamentals Seminar Series focusing on color science and quality control is now available in an online learning format. The remote format consists of two courses and features self-paced modules, downloadable course guides, educational videos, product demonstrations, and interactive activities.
Attendees will learn about color theory and how to measure, control, and communicate color to improve production workflows, reduce waste, and meet sustainability goals. In addition to the virtual format, the seminar will also be held in-person this fall throughout the United States.
“Last year, we announced our first virtual fundamentals seminar series course, the Fundamentals of Color and Appearance. We are excited to announce that the second course, Fundamentals of Instrumentation and Quality Control (FIQC), is now online, too,” said Raj Shah, vice president of Marketing, X-Rite and Pantone. “Together, these courses provide a mix of color theory and practical information to help attendees implement color measurement and quality standards across their workflows and supply chains.”
The Online Fundamentals Seminar is a two-course series with more than 10 hours of video instruction taught by X-Rite color experts. To enhance the remote training experience, attendees have access to a discussion board and a live Q&A with an X-Rite color expert. The seminar is ideal for anyone who works with or specifies color, including quality control professionals, lab technicians, part suppliers, product developers, designers, and manufacturers.
