"The PD we received on the equipment and software we purchased was beneficial. I have nine years of experience running and operating a makerspace at the high school level, and I learned something new through every module."

"The 1st Makerspace Professional Development was fun, hands-on, and mind-stretching, with all the possibilities for implementing engineering and science activities into the makerspace curriculum and student sessions! The two-day PD was a huge confidence booster for anyone newcomer to the world of being a maker! Anyone can be a maker :)"
