Tools
Sandbox provides free access to a wide range of tools and equipment. The full list of tools is under construction but for now, a list of available tool training can be found on our Canvas Training Site
Training
While we encourage everyone to use all of the tools in Sandbox, most tools require you to complete a short, self-directed safety and usage training class in order to be certiifed to use that tool. These classes are hosted on ELMS / Canvas, Maryland's Learning Management System. You can self-enroll in this Canvas course here Be sure to click on the 'Enroll' icon.
