The Lab Tech Specialists each specialize in a specific technology focus area but are cross-trained in technologies across all 11 learning modules. All of our hardware and technology is constantly updated, regulated, and audited alongside the emerging and innovative technology in our world. 

The Lab Outreach Specialists bridge the academic and workforce skills by creating and communicating various models of events, workshops, academic courses and programs. They are responsible for connecting our technology with design thinking in a fun, interactive way. 

The Lab Marketing Specialists each have their focus on a different part of representing the Innovate Labs initiative. Our website, marketing strategy, and organizational relationships are all overseen to create as much synergy with partners as possible.
