In general, you usually need a high school diploma.

To be a printing press operator or other related tradesperson, you need an apprenticeship or a combination of several years' experience and college or other trade courses, or several years' on-the-job training. You may need trade certification or a licence in the province/territory where you'll work.

Many recent entrants have a high school diploma, and almost 3 in 10 have a trade/vocational certificate or community college diploma.
