Compendium of Champions

The Compendium of Champions is a list of the various tools and areas within the space that are voluntarily championed by a member. The purpose of assigning a champion to a tool or area is to provide a single point of reference in regards to training, maintenance and administration.

The champion is empowered to act on behalf of the group in the interest of the assignment and bound by the responsibilities that may encompass.

A champion is encouraged to delegate to other volunteers to fulfill the entailed responsibilities.

Champions are not financially responsible for equipment breakage, nor do they have any duties above that of a regular member or keyholder, they are merely a point of reference for knowledge and communication.

Trainers List

Training fees often help run the space by way of purchasing consumables and raising funds for new tools. Trainers also commit their time to help you get started in the space and are deserving for a bit of compensation for their time as well.

Most trainers also understand there are some people facing financial hardships. If this applies to you speak with the trainer privately and i'm sure something can be worked out.
