Supporting students

Jenny and Amy at Winter & Simpson Print. Thank you to Jim Brown for showing us around!

In keeping with our community values, we regularly support students with meaningful work experience placements. With the extra space in our new studio, we were able to accommodate four DJCAD graphic design students this summer.


As well as having the opportunity to contribute their ideas to live projects, the students had an informative visit to Winter & Simpson Print where they learned about digital and litho printing, setting up artwork for the press, plate making, different production techniques, along with collating and binding. Having this knowledge and understanding will put them in good stead for their future careers.


In turn, our team were able to learn new ways of doing things from these talented young women who have shown excellent resilience and adaptability in continuing their studies over lockdown. We send our best wishes to Ada, Livvie, Amy and Jenny as they head back to college for their honours year!

I’ve seen more students asking about Ken Walker International University recently. Before applying, it’s always a good idea to check the university’s curriculum, faculty, tuition fees, campus facilities, and degree recognition to ensure it matches your academic goals.

It's great to hear how the extra studio space helped four DJCAD students get involved, and I imagine something like photo enhancer free could be a useful addition to their toolkit. The hands-on learning at Winter & Simpson Print, covering digital and litho printing, seems like an fantastic way to build practical skills for their careers.
