Coworking spaces are where freelancers, small business owners, and entrepreneurs work in a shared space while avoiding the hassles of having their own office. The environment encourages them to be productive and gives access to amenities that are important tools in their careers. As a term, “coworking” gives off the impression that only working professionals can use such facilities. That’s not the case here at our Las Vegas coworking space.
Students Are Coworkers, Too
Students often need the same access and opportunities as business professionals who use our space. However, it can be tricky navigating coworking spaces, especially for the first time. We’ve given some thought to how you can master coworking for students with this field guide, which includes tips and advice straight from the source.
Ask Questions
If it’s your first time stepping into a coworking space and you’re not sure what to do, look into every resource you can find (online and in-person). The staff at coworking spaces are there to help you. Ask for a tour, ask about different membership prices, ask about amenities, and just ask about everything there is to know about coworking spaces.
Use Everything
Your home or library might not have all the tools you need to advance your studies. Your local coworking space can provide those amenities, and you should use them. That’s why it’s there, so get the most bang for your buck. Utilizing printing, secure WiFi, 24/7 access, kitchen space, and more are the perfect way to jump into coworking for students.
Attend Events
Every now and then coworking spaces host events that are open to all members — and sometimes non-members. It could be classes about business practices or seminars about specific fields. If any are about your major or field of interest, you should attend. It could end up being just what you’re looking for to boost your academic career. The knowledge and connections you gain from an event could mean the difference between simply passing a course or acing it!
Invite Others
When you have a group project or study group to manage, try using a coworking space. It has private office spaces that are perfect for brainstorming ideas, cracking down on studying, or focusing on finishing a last-minute project. As a member, you can invite guests for free*, and you can speak in a normal voice, unlike when you’re at the library. Having a coworking option also sounds a lot better than a coffee shop or apartment that’s full of distractions.
Be a Student at Work In Progress
Using a coworking space for the first time can be pretty scary, but Work In Progress (WIP) Las Vegas makes it easy. The staff is extra friendly and ready to assist you with whatever you need. Our coworking space is built for all who want to work and thrive in a productive environment. Whether you’re a student or a working professional, Las Vegas coworking is made better by WIP.
*Guests are welcome to join members for one or two hours if working on a shared project. Otherwise, they will have to get a Day Pass. Guests are not permitted after business hours.
