To support remote workers, X-Rite is offering its popular Color Theory class free for a limited time to anyone who works with or approves colour.

X-Rite Incorporated and Pantone LLC, global leaders in colour science and technology has announced that its Color Theory eLearning Course is available free for a limited time. In an effort to support the growing number of remote workers who must review and approve colour, the on-demand training explains the basics of colour theory, colour tolerances and sharing digital colour standards. In addition, X-Rite is hosting a series of colour management webinars designed to help attendees optimize their use of colour measurement hardware and software.

“Due to COVID-19, many workers are now trying to design, specify, communicate, and ultimately achieve accurate colour from remote locations or with less staff and fewer resources,” said Ondrej Kruk, President, X-Rite. “To do this, you need to understand colour theory, communication and measurement. By making our eLearning course available for no charge, professionals in the plastics, textiles, paints & coatings, and print and packaging industries can learn tips and best practices for colour management and keep production workflows moving forward during these challenging times.”
