What does it mean to be a maker

No you read something into my post that is not there. Woodshop, metal shop, machine shop, none of these aim to train people to get a job. We aim to train people to safely use tools to make projects. Woodshop 101, welding safety, laser 102, none of these classes aim to create expertise or create jobs. You started this thread advising the goal is to get ready for a job in software coding in 14 weeks. I have no problem with any specific committee regardless of size. I have a major problem with a committee planning to ask for thousands of member dollars to train people for a job. This doesn’t sound maker related, yes educational, but not maker related.

@Team_Moderators please undo the actions of @denzuko as my post is a direct question in the coding dojo post, not a new discussion meant to avoid answering the main question.

Agreed, cleaving topics is a great way of stifling dissent. Seems even more unsavory when done by a party to the conversation.
