Ricoh ACE trains and certifies instructors across a range of educational institutions—including high schools, community colleges, and adult education, career and technical schools—to deliver the curriculum to students at their local institutions, thereby certifying those students, as well. ACE instructor training takes place at the Ricoh Customer Experience Center (CEC) in Boulder, Co., where Ricoh's print experts provide hands-on experience with the core printing industry technologies and technical processes employed today, as well as graphic design, specialty software, production automation, workflow best practices, and in-depth industry insights. Participants in the training at the CEC are also granted future access to Ricoh's technical experts for ongoing remote support when delivering the curriculum at their respective educational institutions.
