General Safety Considerations:

• As this is an independent study, safety and sensible decisions is paramount. A high level of safe decisions is needed to remain doing the IDS course.
  
• No use of open electronics above 18 Volts and or 2 Amps without a qualified adult present
• No use of soldering or other dangerous apparatus without a qualified adult present
• No use of liquids without a qualified adult present
• No assignments using (flying) drones as they have been done very well professionally and have extra levels of safety to consider
