==Student Aces and Student Volunteers==
Student aces/volunteers are key to the training process and overall function of the Maker Hub. Student aces become an expert on a particular piece of [[equipment]] and help conduct training and demonstrations for that piece of [[equipment]]. Student volunteers oversee a particular facility and help conduct training and demonstrations for several pieces of [[equipment]] within that facility. Student aces/volunteers often receive additional privileges such as extended access to their facility.

==Student Spouses and Family Members==
Employees may sponsor their spouse and family members into the Maker Hub. This means that employee spouses and family members may accompany the employee within the facility. While family members may use [[tools]] along with their employee sponsor, all minors (under 18) are prohibited from using any Maker Hub [[equipment]] or [[tools]] until they have signed a liability release form. The employee sponsor assumes full responsibility for ensuring that his or her guests adhere to the proper safety protocols and professionalism required in the Maker Hub. Employee spouses may train on and use the Maker Hub's [[equipment]]. The first step in connecting the employee's spouse with the Maker Hub is for the employee 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. Employee 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. Employee spouses may also serve as a Maker Hub volunteer (see the Volunteers section).
