At The Skillery, our coworking space in Nashville, we've been offering classes and workshops for over four years - since long before we had a coworking space, actually. But we're about to exit the class and workshop business, and I wanted to share some thoughts with you about why. I also wanted to share some tips and perspective, in case you're thinking of adding classes and workshops to your space.
Here are two blogs posts we wrote on the topic: *Tips for adding classes and workshops to your coworking space.* http://www.theskillery.com/blog/2015/12/29/tips-for-adding-classes-and-workshops-to-your-coworking-space *After four years, we’re (mostly) ditching classes and workshops. Here’s why.* http://www.theskillery.com/blog/2015/11/2/after-four-years-were-mostly-ditching-classes-and-workshops-heres-why We'll still offering our all-day Introduction to Entrepreneurship workshop <http://www.theskillery.com/introduction-to-entrepreneurship/workshop/> - that's been a big success, and we're looking forward to expanding it. if anyone is interested in bringing it to their city, just shout. But, otherwise, we've probably offered our last class... I hope these are helpful. You may find some other helpful blog posts related to our coworking space here: http://www.theskillery.com/blog/?tag=coworking I'm happy to answer questions about the challenges and opportunities involved with offering classes and workshops! Just holler! Thanks, -Matt -- Visit this forum on the web at http://discuss.coworking.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
