    Hi,

    I am new to the world of printing but not graphics. I have been searching for diploma and/or degree level training in printing within UK. I came across a program but it is no longer offered due to lack of demand. My education is in animation and visual effects. I understand technicalities very quickly and printing seems to be both artistic and technical. Hence my interest is developing. I am reading a few books about the subject but it's no substitute to education. I am based in Watford which used to be a printing town but not any more. We have a few printing facilities here and I have visited them to find out about the trade. I was wondering if anyone here knows about a university/institute offering extensive training in printing. Any guidance will be appreciated. Thanks.
