To Become a Lab Member

1.  Consult with a QNFCF staff member to assess your project's feasibility

• Prior to beginning the onboarding process it is important to determine whether this work is possible in any of the QNFCF's labs.
• Discussion should also consider whether the scope of the project is suitable for lab membership and tool training or if arranging a "fee for service" would be more appropriate.
