Packaging Machinery Technicians

Certification or Licensing

Although employers may not require certification, it can provide a competitive advantage when seeking employment. The Institute of Packaging Professionals offers the certified packaging professional (CPP) designation. Individuals who achieve this certification can add CPP to the end of their name, for example on resumes and business cards. For those packagers having fewer than six years of academic or work experience, a certified professionals in training (CPIT) program is offered.
