Amaya Machine Basics: Operation and Maintenance

Class length: 2 days
Offered 2 – 4 times a month at most US Training Facilities

This class is usually combined with the 2-day DesignShop Basics: Lettering, & Editing class, to allow customers to take both classes during the same week. Customers who do not wish to take the DesignShop portion, only attend the first 2 days. If you own both AMAYA and DesignShop, we recommend that you attend all 4 days to get the most out of your Melco products.
