The Resource Center
The Resource Center is
Like a part of the library where you can find

and LaserJet printer.

Questions from pages 114 and 115 What are the
two things you would like to improve about

to do? Describe your typical work day.

Testing
A recent survey of our 23 departments suggests
that many of our technical employees think there
is a need for more advanced training courses.
This is particularly true for the 18 technicians
and engineers in the Installation and Repair
Departments. Since some of our machines have
been replaced by advanced digital models, many
employees lack the necessary skills to operate
and repair them. The most recent examples are
the new wrapping machines that were purchased and
installed in November. In order to determine
which courses should be offered
