Three-dimensional (3D) printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), is a powerful manufacturing technique with a 2020 global market size of ca. $13.8B USD, projected to grow by 21% annually through to 2028. 3D printing is of special importance to Canada in the fourth industrial revolution - Industry 4.0 - given the dominant share of Canada's gross domestic product (GDP) occupied by the manufacturing industry and the pressing need to diversify Canada's economy well beyond resource-based industries. Canada has seen a booming 3D printing industry from coast to coast. However, a massive gap in highly qualified personnel (HQP) with knowledge and experience in 3D printing is looming, and there is a growing need for HQP in this sector. Canada must act quickly to fill this gap, or risk being left behind.3DPTM: NSERC CREATE Training Program in 3D Printing Technology and Materials is a new, innovative training initiative at UBC and UVic that will train a future generation of scientists and engineers in 3D printing to provide the needed HQP to meet the increasing regional and national demand for HQP in 3D printing. Trainees will undertake interdisciplinary, collaborative research projects covering the full spectrum of 3D printing, from technology and ink development to applications of 3D printing technology, with a special focus on biomedical applications. They will take innovative new coursework and participate in a new dedicated seminar program and professional development activities. 3DPTM trainees will closely interact with industry through an industry mentorship program, through seminars and retreats, and through internships at Canadian companies or in Asia. Trainees will obtain hands-on training on instruments relevant for 3D printing, develop soft skills through professional development workshops and outreach activities, and build industry connections to facilitate their transition to the workforce. These HQP will help meet the increasing need for Canadian industry and innovation.

三维（3D）打印，也被称为增材制造（AM），是一种强大的制造技术，2020年全球市场规模约为100亿美元。138亿美元，预计到2028年每年增长21%。3D打印在第四次工业革命中对加拿大特别重要-工业4.0 -考虑到制造业在加拿大国内生产总值（GDP）中占据主导地位，以及加拿大经济多元化的迫切需要远远超出资源型产业。加拿大从东海岸到西海岸都有蓬勃发展的3D打印产业。然而，拥有3D打印知识和经验的高素质人才（HQP）的巨大缺口正在逼近，该行业对HQP的需求越来越大。3DPTM：NSERC CREATE 3D打印技术和材料培训计划是UBC和UVic的一项新的创新培训计划，将培训未来一代3D打印科学家和工程师，以提供所需的HQP，以满足日益增长的区域和国家对3D打印HQP的需求。学员将开展跨学科的合作研究项目，涵盖3D打印的全方位，从技术和油墨开发到3D打印技术的应用，特别关注生物医学应用。他们将采取创新的新课程，并参加一个新的专门研讨会计划和专业发展活动。3DPTM学员将通过行业导师计划，通过研讨会和务虚会，以及通过在加拿大公司或亚洲的实习与行业密切互动。学员将获得与3D打印相关的仪器的实践培训，通过专业发展研讨会和外联活动发展软技能，并建立行业联系，以促进他们向劳动力的过渡。这些HQP将有助于满足加拿大工业和创新日益增长的需求。
