Christchurch, 30 May 2014 - The Pride in Print Awards was recently hosted in Auckland and two talented Yoobee graduate’s work achieved a Gold award in the Promotional Category. It was their design that was entered by Adprint that won gold for excellence in printing.

Graduates Harrison Lazarides and Jacqui Leigh studied the Digital Media Advanced (DMA) programme at Yoobee’s Wellington campus in 2013 and were involved in this project as part of their industry module during their course work. “The collaboration with our industry partner Adprint, and the client Blue Carrot Catering proved to be a winning combination, says Yoobee National Programme Manager, Tania Hannah.

“Having this industry module in the DMA programme gave our students a real life project, preparing them for the workforce. We are very proud of the quality of work they produced and stoked that along with Adprint, their efforts received a Gold award”.
