OMB Accepts Occupational Structure Recommendations For Printing Workers
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has accepted the Education Summit for Graphic Communication (ESGC)'s recommendations for structure changes to "Printing Workers" detailed occupational groups for the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC). The SOC is designed to reflect the current occupational structure of the United States, and provides data that is widely used by government program managers, industrial and labor relations practitioners, employers and job seekers, academic and business researchers, educators, guidance counselors, and students exploring potential careers and identifying educational and training alternatives. The Education Summit is an industry consortium created and supported by a number of individuals and organizations. It is primarily sponsored by the Print and Graphics Scholarship Foundation (PGSF), a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit, private, industry-directed organization that dispenses undergraduate college scholarships and graduate fellowship assistance to talented men and women interested in graphic communications careers.
