Future Builders Academy - Remote Enterprise Option
In the Remote Enterprise Option, you gain the ability to learn hands-on, but without participating full time on site at the Future Builders Academy. The Future Builders Academy is a full-time, immersion experience
This is an opportunity for you to learn about the Seed Eco-Home, by participating in at least 3 Builder Crash Courses over 12 months from the start of your Mentorship. You are welcome to participate in as many of the Builder Crash Courses as we run during a 12 month period.
Additional Curriculum
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.
Participants in the Remote Enterprise Option are required to contribute to OSE design and documentation. This includes contributing any improvements to 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.
Cost and Goals
The cost of the Mentorship 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 are Not Included
Extreme Builds other than the Builder Crash Course are not included in the cost. Other Extreme Builds run from a few days to a week. For example, we are building the open source skid steer Dec 15-22. 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.
