#cybersecurity course starts June 22!
https://futures.academany.org/classes/cybersecurity/
The #Academany uses a distributed learning model where students work together in local #fablab while connecting globally with experts, originally developed through #FabAcademy for hands-on technical training. #FabFutures extends this to vocational education, monthly one-month modules in various skills that lead to introductory certificates, which can be combined into a one-year diploma without requiring a predetermined career path.

Another video promoting #FreeCad. In this video this guy shows you how to model a bike frame in FreeCAD, covering all the techniques that professional designers use to create this model.
Educational and clear how complex designs can be created with open-source tools!

Another improvement in #fabacademy 's #electronics production week appears to be the #xtool UV laser. Along with the F1/F2 Ultra, this one seems capable of producing even more usable (and smaller) PCBs.

#Fabacademy started the #electronics production where students learn howto prototype #PCB 's. Huge progress this year with the addition of the fablib (standard Fab Lab) #Kicad plugin.
https://gitlab.fabcloud.org/pub/libraries/electronics/kicad
And since yesterday, the Gerber2Png plugin for producing machinable PNGs directly from #kicad.

The #FabLib #KiCad library experienced a facelift and now is an official KiCad addon!
FabLib makes it easy to produce PCBs at a standard #FabLab. There are more than 2k Fab Labs in the world and many of them will have #electronics components from the official Fab Inventory. The goal is 1:1 mapping with the parts from the Inventory which reduces friction when learning electronics and boosts confidence when prototyping rapidly at a Fab Lab.

We prototype a new educational program in the #fablab network!
Fab Futures teaches 21st century vocational skills. It is a part of The #Academany, the fab lab network's distributed hands-on educational program.
It grew from the #FabAcademy, developed to provide hands-on technical training in fab labs.
1st class on Data Science: Over four weeks, participants learn how to collect, organize, and analyze datasets using interactive notebooks and open-source tools.
