In-plant Events

The In-plant Printing and Mailing Association and In-plant Graphics are planning some free in-plant activities over the next eight months. Here, you will find a rundown of the upcoming events.

At last month’s IPMA conference, one session focused on getting employees more engaged in their work lives.

At the IPMA conference, Jim Rowell of Rising Sun Consultants revealed the fact that the national voluntary turnover rate is 20%.

After two years and two shop moves, Lisa Vosta finally hosted the open house she had been planning for her in-plant at Southeast Community College in Lincoln, Neb. In May, having adjusted to the new space, the in-plant finally held its long-awaited open house and it was a big success.

I learned some very important things in Canada while attending last month’s College and University Print Management Association of Canada (CUPMAC) conference. For instance, I was shocked to discover there is such a thing as poutine: french fries and cheese curds topped with gravy. It’s on every menu in Canada. Why didn’t we think of that in the U.S.?

At last month's In-plant Printing and Mailing Association conference, a panel of four in-plant managers shared their ideas for building a strong in-plant.

Tomorrow is Canada Day. What's more, it's Canada's 150th birthday. I'll bet not many of you in the U.S. knew that. But after spending nearly a week in Ottawa, Canada's capital, watching the preparations, it became pretty clear to me that something big was in the works.

Frank Romano and Bob Neubauer are just two of the speakers at this week's College and University Print Management Association of Canada conference, taking place in Ottawa, Ontario. In-plant managers from across Canada are there for the event.

Another IPMA Conference has just wrapped up in Pittsburgh, and it proved to be one of the most interactive conferences yet.

The Pittsburgh Penguins' Stanley Cup parade passed directly by the hotel where the IPMA conference was taking place Wednesday. The cheering of fans nearly drowned out the conference speakers. Check out the great photo IPG got of the Stanley Cup.
