Offered in partnership with the Mail Systems Management Association (MSMA)

Obtaining certification in understanding and designing mail for automation is essential for mailers to get their mail accepted, receive Postal discounts and speed mail delivery for themselves and their customers. Our sister regional printing industry association will be providing a two-day virtual classroom program with an open book exam for certification as a Mailpiece Design Consultant (MDC). Our presenter is Jim Barlow, Jr., of MSMA, with special guest Leo Raymond of Mailers Hub.

The MDC is a written, open book paper exam that will be given online after the training is completed. There is HOMEWORK. To help you prepare, a PDF study guide and sample test questions will be sent to you upon registration. So, register early to ensure you have your materials in a timely manner.
