Color Management Group offers competency exams at ColorManagement.com

The Color Management Group is now offering at www.colormanagement.com color management and RIP competency tests that can be used to assess and evaluate a person's color management skills. Anyone who takes the test is given a realistic measure of his or her knowledge and skills about color management, press calibration and the use of five specific color management RIPs for digital inkjet proofing and wide format output.

Employers can use these tests in a variety of scenarios, including pre-employment screening, testing an employee's ability before or after color training, in-house testing to evaluate an employee's current skills and knowledge, or assessing an employee's skills and knowledge over the course of time. It is also a good barometer to determine if an employee needs user training from a vendor or a color management expert. Vendors and associations can use them in their training and certification classes, while consultants can use them to assess and evaluate clients before, during and after consulting services.

‘This series of competency tests was created by Color Management Group premier consultants who have extensive expertise,’ said Lida Jalali Marschke, co-founder and director of The Color Management Group. ‘It is exactly what the industry needs: a series of standard, comprehensive, objective and cost-effective-color management tests that can be used industry-wide to evaluate operator knowledge.’
