The Industry
The printing and graphic communications industry employs over 274,000 people working in more than 25,900 establishments across Canada. In 2006, these men and women contributed nearly $5.0 billion to the Canadian GDP. Small firms dominate the industry, with about 87% of companies employing fewer than 10 people. To remain competitive, the industry requires a highly skilled workforce.

CPISC
As the printing industry's sector council, CPISC's mission is to assist employees and employers in the Canadian printing and graphic communications industry in developing and maintaining a skilled workforce and progressive human resource management in order to maximize the career potential of every employee and to support the industry’s prosperity.

CPISC was incorporated in April 2006 through the Sector Council Program of Human Resources and Social Development Canada.

The guiding principle within CPISC is partnership - bringing together employers, employees, education, unions and government to meet the current and future human resource development needs of the Canadian printing and graphic communications industry. Visit our Wall of Honour, a tribute to the hundreds of industry representatives who have served on project working groups, focus groups and steering committees.

The intent of CPISC is not to duplicate what exists, but to build on what is already being done and develop on a national basis the programs and services that meet the needs of the industry as a whole.
