Students may sponsor their spouse and family members into the Maker Hub. This means that student spouses and family members may accompany the current GFU student within the facility. While family members may use [[tools]] along with their student sponsor, all minors (under 18) are prohibited from using any Maker Hub [[equipment]] or [[tools]] until they have signed a liability release form. The student sponsor assumes full responsibility for ensuring that his or her guests adhere to the proper safety protocols and professionalism required in the Maker Hub. Student spouses may train on and use the Maker Hub's [[equipment]]. The first step in connecting the student's spouse with the Maker Hub is for the student to initiate a background check with HR. HR will pass their information to the IT department so they can create a GFU ID and the proper computer accounts. Student spouses are expected to undergo the proper wiki/quiz/training/demonstration process of being certified on a piece of [[equipment]] just like students and employees. Student spouses may also serve as a Maker Hub volunteer (see the Volunteers section).

Students may sponsor their spouse and family members into the Maker Hub. This means that student spouses and family members may accompany the current GFU student within the facility. The student sponsor assumes full responsibility for ensuring that his or her guests adhere to the proper safety protocols, cleanliness, and professionalism required in the Maker Hub. If the family members have signed a waiver, they are permitted to use [[tools]] under the direct supervision of their student sponsor. Student family members are prohibited from using Maker Hub [[equipment]]. However, student spouses are an exception. If desired, student spouses may achieve [[equipment]] certification through the Maker Hub's standard wiki/quiz/training/demonstration process. The first step in connecting the student's spouse with the Maker Hub is for the student to initiate a background check with HR. HR will pass their information to the IT department so they can create a GFU ID and the proper computer accounts. Once the computer accounts are created, the student spouse may read the wiki and enroll in the Maker Hub Introduction Canvas Course. Student spouses may also serve as a Maker Hub volunteer (see the Volunteers section).
