What Are Badges?

To gain access to the UNSW Makerspace Network, users need to earn access Badges.

Badging is how we ensure UNSW Making users have the skills to safely and efficiently use our network of materials, machines and spaces.

Earn badges by first completing associated online learning components, followed by in-person Badge Training.

The first badge you should complete is the WS Workshop Safety Badge.
