| + | |||
| + | **You must be cleared on a class before you are permitted to teach it** - this applies to all classes, brand new or otherwise. This is the process: | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Instructor inspects the area(s) where the class is to be taught | ||
| + | - Instructor submits purchase requests for any missing supplies or tools. | ||
| + | - Instructor picks a time to trial the class, at least 7 days in the future. | ||
| + | - An education lead recruits Shop Techs to attend the trial class (takes a couple days). | ||
| + | - The techs attend the class and the instructor teaches, taking notes on any gaps in process or tooling. | ||
| + | - Attendees submit feedback to the education leads, who meet with the instructor to discuss improvements to the class. | ||
| + | - If the feedback is generally positive, the class is approved for teaching to members and the general public. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Note: You may log billable hours for the trial session, or volunteer hours if you like. | ||
| + | ==== Modifying existing classes ==== | ||
