Hi Andy. At Mojo Coworking we have been working with other community
organizations to host classes of all types in our common space/classroom
area. We've had 3 workshops from the Mycelium School
(http://www.myceliumschool.org), Microsoft Office Classes, A maker
workshop,
Alex is right that classes vary dramatically from space to space.
We tried to do regular classes and found it to be difficult to find quality
instructors and to market the classes. Basically, it's a lot of work with
little pay off. I have since shifted my focus and looking partner services
Semi separate of my coworking space my experience was similar to Craig's as far
as classes. Lots of work variable pay-off
We've had tremendous success with meet ups as our space has a dedicated space
that can hold about 60 people with 10' screen, HD projector etc. That has
worked well.
Since people are mentioning organizations that do the heavy lifting, I can
point to Girl Develop It as a distributed non-profit organization that helps
teach women to code. We're one of their Philadelphia hosts and they've been
awesome/well organized.
We'll be moving forward with more
