We are designing a method for recruiting 24 candidates to the OSE Apprenticeship over a short period of 3 months. Normally, recruiting for a significant program may take much longer, so to recruit successfully on a much shorter scale, we are taking the following steps to widen reach. This has costs of approximately $250k involved with this program, but can be crowdfunded in many ways as the list implie:
Tuition Funding
- Offering full scholarships to exceptional candidates. Each year's tuition costs approximately $15k, so this can take significant funding. If the organizer is interested in an aggressive campaign, this can cost $60k per student. Perhaps a reasonable option is providing full tuition for 4 exceptional candidates.
- Promoting 0% Kiva Microloans to entrepreneurs, up to $15k and 3 year term - meaning apprenticeship participants can pay as they go. This is just another way for students to pay their way.
- OSE sets up a crowdsourced tuition fund - chip in to support 50% tuition for one (or more) candidates
Broadening Audience
- Start locally. Promote to the local high school and area. Start making noise in local tech school fairs.
- Tech School Track. Diversify to include a 'Tech School' option as opposed to 'save the world option' - but without eliminating the lifelong learning aspect. Include a 'Tech School Track'
- Veterans Track. Develop programs for veterans. OSE is already partly connected, and this is a great opportunity for additional funding - such as GI Bill for OJT (on-job training), VRRAP, VR&E, Non-paid Work Experience Training, etc..
- Promote an international audience. While the program can accept candidates globally. F1 visas allow 20 hours of work-study, which fits our program well. While challenging to obtain, this is an option. Canada and Bermuda are exempt [1]. T
