Introduction
The Basic Certification is OSE's affirmation that a client of the Open Source Microfactory STEAM Camp has gained basic competency in collaborative, open source product design, development, and prototyping.
This Certificate is an incentive for participants to learn and document a skill based on granularly-defined learning objectives. By defining the skills gained explicitly, we aim to make the skill set measurable - to incentivize participants' quest for competency.
During the STEAM Camps, participants are encouraged to start a Work Log to document and track their learning. Each of the skill sets below is demonstrated by example - such as embedded editable documents, uploaded CAD files, or a screencast uploaded to YouTube and embedded.
Specifically, the skills that we vouch for are:
- CAD Design Proficiency - This is the ability to design simple and complex designs in FreeCAD using a basic workflow for sketching various geometries, creating solids out of these geometries, and further adding 3D features onto the existing geometries to create just about any design.
- Collaborative CAD Design Proficiency - - This is the ability to contribute to Part Libraries and visual version histories that are created as a collaborative effort of multiple people. This involves working with versioned CAD designs, saving CAD parts so they can me merged into a design, and updating files while maintaining a version history.
