The infographic titled "Creative Making Pathways" illustrates the training progression in the Moody Makerspace. It outlines the steps involved in earning digital badges by completing interactive modules. The graphic visually represents different stages of skill development, culminating in recognized expertise within the Moody Makerspace and Innovation Garage. The first step is Facility Access which is granted after completing the Orientation + Basic Shop Safety module in the Creative making pathways Canvas course. Upon completion of this module, you can choose from a range of "Apprentice" badges which represent introductory knowledge of various tools including 3D printing, cutting machines, and powered tools. Completion of these modules allows you to use the associated tools and also unlocks skill modules in the creative making pathways Canvas course which gives more in depth training beyond the apprentice level.

 

For equipment without a Creative Making Pathways module, we offer in-person training to get you up to speed. Contact us to arrange a workshop or inquire about training options for specific equipment not yet covered online.
