MOE has a program called MOE University (MOEU), which starts in September and meets once a week until kickoff. The various subteams meet separately to learn the basics and practice the necessary skills. There is also a week where the mechanical students are tested in order to be certified on the more dangerous machines, and modules for the entire team on safety and brainstorming.
Below is the web page with more details, including some presentations for some of the basics. Feel free to use!
We have also arranged with a local community college to give up to eight credits (at no cost) to students who complete two years of MOEU and the build season. Which are transferable to other colleges, which many of our alum have done.
