The (maker)SPACE—Supporting Prototyping And Creativity in Education—program is designed for people who are interested in honing their maker skills and are seeking employment in fabrication laboratories and makerspaces within community centers, libraries, and educational settings. The program provides instruction and support for building models and prototypes, strategies to spark innovation and invention, and creative problem-solving and collaboration.

As part of the program, participants will complete all of the courses required to earn the CA State Certificate in Makerspace Coordination. This certificate— currently the only one in California that is state-approved—is ideal for classified and certificated personnel at school sites, community center volunteers and employees, librarians and assistants, and anyone interested in becoming a creative and collaborative member of a makerspace.

Listen in to learn more about the KCI CA State Certificate in Makerspace Coordination.

NOTE: Our next SPACE Cohort will launch in Spring, 2020 rather than the winter. Stay tuned for more details!
