Shaping up the innovators – E2I offers Bite-size training…

E2I offers a series of “bite-size” training modules, intended to provide technical skills training opportunities for potential innovators. These modules are focused on modern prototyping methods, and help students master their prototyping skills at their own pace. Some of these modules are on Power tools operation, 3D printing, Laser cutting, 3D scanning and Woodwork design. These training modules were well received by Engineering Students, as well as Business and Science students. Furthermore, these “bite-size” training modules were also being adopted by a few design and entrepreneurship courses as part of their curriculum, including ENGG1100, ENGG1010 and ENTR1001.

Train the trainer – Student Empowerment

E2I is deploying significant effort into the “train-the-trainer” program to train the senior engineering students to become trainers. This enables some of the senior engineering students to offer Makers’ Workshops to the junior engineering students. With the special identity of “Senior Technical Advisors”, students are now offering a wide range of Makers Workshops in the USEL lab targeting first year students.
