For taking up Fab Academy it is extremely important that a
local instructor be present so that he could support us with using the
machine and equipments of the fablab and help us throughout the course.
To bridge this gap KSUM in a special arrangement with Fab Foundation
arranged for a precursor course before Fab Academy which would enable
the people planning to take the Fab Academy to get familiar with the
processes and equipments and be self sufficient throughout the Fab
Academy.
The pre academy was taken by two excellent gurus Francisco Sanchez and Luciano Betoldi who came to Kerala and engaged us in the Pre academy/ Prefab program spanning 4 weeks of intensive training in the two labs.
22 of us enrolled into the program of which 11 passed. You can find all the information about the people who took the pre academy in http://thebeachlab.github.io/.
Documentation of my experiences during the pre academy can be found at http://puneethrj.github.io/
The prefab allowed the participants to be qualified enough to take up the role of manager of the fablab partly. I routinely helped and advised the fab lab clients in their projects and use of fablab equipments. The clients included architects, students and engineers.
