Future Builders Academy - Remote Enterprise Option
In the Remote Enterprise Option, you can learn to build the Seed Eco-Home hands-on, but without participating full time on site at the Future Builders Academy. The Future Builders Academy is a full-time, immersion experience. The Remote Enterprise Option is an opportunity to learn only the Seed Eco-Home build and enterprise - remotely but with on-site participation in builder crash courses. Curriculum includes the technical design rationale, build technique, ergonomics, and ergonomics. We leave out the other Future Builders Academy core curriculum, such as learning how to learn, learning how to solve problems, etc. These are separate tracks from the Remote Enterprise Option.
This is a great opportunity for you to learn about buidling the Seed Eco-Home in the most rapid fashion, by participating in at least 3 Builder Crash Courses over 12 months from the start of your Remote Enterprise Option. You are welcome to participate in as many of the Builder Crash Courses as we run during a 12 month period. We plan on running between 3 and 5 Builder Crash Courses. If we run other build events for the Seed Eco-Home, you are welcome to participate in any of them.
Curriculum and Publishing
In addition to the Builder Crash Course sessions, you participate in 3 hours of class time in which we delve into the details of FreeCAD design, SweetHome 3D conceptual design, and all the build details of the Seed Eco-Home. We have about 1000 pages of detailed Build Documents for the product release build of the Seed Eco-Home 4 (such as Seed Eco-Home 4 Build Instructions) along with thousands of pictures detailing the practice of the build.
Remote class time involves practice in FreeCAD, going over bills of materials, design principles, build procedures, ergonomics, and economics of the build. We go over all the supporting know-how related to Seed Eco-Home builds.
Open Source Policy
Participants in the Remote Enterprise Option are required to contribute to OSE design and documentation refinement. In addition to the 3 hours of class time, participants have a requirement of 6 hours homework/practice. This involves producing various documentation improvements, original designs, and other collaborative projects - on the wiki. This includes contributing any improvements related to or based on our work back to the OSE wiki, so that everyone else can benefit - under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 International license and under any other permissive open hardware license. See Licensing.
For example, if we are learning about plan submission to the building department, collaborators would be producing such supporting documents, collaboratively, as part of the the learning process.
All class sessions will be recorded, including any student discussion during class. Class sessions will be published online after the live online event for anyone to learn from as part of our open content. This is consistent with our goals of Distributed Market Substitution and Zero Marginal Cost Society.
Cost and Goals
The cost of the Remote Enterprise Option is $7350. It is intended for those individuals who want to learn all the know-how of Seed Eco-Home builds - while gaining hands-on practice during Builder Crash Courses spanning a time frame of 12 months from signup.
Other Workshops
Extreme Builds other than the Builder Crash Course are not included in the cost, but the participant may request to participate on an as-needed basis. Other Extreme Builds may run from a day to a week or more. For example, we are building the open source skid steer Dec 15-22, 2025. The 3D printer, CNC torch table, and CEB press builds are also forthcoming in 2026. The 3D printer is a powerful tool that can be used to print materials for construction, and the CNC Torch table is used to build heavy machines used in construction, such as the skid steer and CEB press.
