Get Trained: BeAM 101
BeAM is an amazing resource for any student, faculty member or staff member at UNC. To get started, all users must take BeAM 101 to be able to work in our makerspaces in Murray Hall, Hanes Art Center, and Carmichael Residence Hall. BeAM 101 is a series of 3 steps that will create a training record for you in the BeAM database and orient you to the BeAM community. Basic tools can be accessed by completing BeAM 101 training. This introductory course is a prerequisite to all other BeAM tool trainings.
After taking BeAM 101, you must take additional tool trainings to learn how to use equipment beyond our basic hand tools. For example, interested in learning how to use the laser cutter? Take our online laser cutter module and complete one of the intro projects to get certified. We offer tool trainings for our 3D printers, laser cutters, vinyl cutters, sewing machines, woodshop, and more. Check out the BeAM schedule for more info!
