A program of webinars covering major areas of business operations is being developed by Printing Industries Association of Australia.
The program will launch on Friday at 1pm on Friday 19 April 2013 with a webinar on how printing companies can access clean technology grants.
Printing Industries National Director, Communications and Marketing, Joe Kowalewski, said the 30-minute webinar would be the first of a regular webinar program for Printing Industries member’s covering a wide range of business topics.
“This marks the beginning of a new approach to bringing our member’s relevant and up-to-date information and, via our webinar series, an interactive way allowing participation without having to leave their premises,” he said.
“It will also provide an outreach program for members in country areas unable to travel to our offices or city venues where many of our information sessions are held.
“Good communication and access to usable information on a regular program basis is important to all businesses and our new webinar series is part of the communications mix being developed to meet this need.”
The clean technology webinar will be presented by Mr Chris Hay, Managing Director of Mojarra, a company providing cost saving, energy efficiency and carbon reduction services to an extensive range of SME and major corporates including News Ltd; Coles; Woolworths; Commonwealth Bank and Caterpillar.
It will focus on grants available through the Federal Government Funded Clean Technology Investment Programme (CTIP), an $800 million competitive, merit based program supporting Australian manufacturers to maintain competitiveness in a carbon constrained economy.
Companies of all sizes may be eligible for a grant – this webinar will help you understand how it could help your business and guide you on what you need to do next.
Topics covered include:
1. Are you eligible for a CTIP grant? What upgrades and projects are covered in the scheme?
2. How it works and the process
3. Criteria for eligibility – the advantage of having 'base line data', being seen as 'Green' etc
4. A change of Federal Government – what would it mean to the program?
5. How to get started.

Mr Kowalewski said the next webinar in the series would focus on Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) for Friday 3 May at 1pm.
