OSE Apprenticeship Badges
Introduction
The reason for badges is to provide an easily-recognizable proof-of-skill-set that assists in role allocation for collaborative work.
Badges for the OSE Apprenticeship include those related directly to the Seed Eco-Home 2 as the core. Other badges that one may learn include those on the enterprise and organizational levels, as well as badges in other machines. Other machines include the 3D printer, filament maker, plastic shredder, power cube, tractor, backhoe, auger, trencher, sawmill, and aquaponic greenhouse.
People with additional skills may earn the optional badges during the OSE Apprenticeship.
We are developing badges, so other suggestions are welcome. The intent is to represent specifically-documented skill clearly. All badges require a documented performance, typically published on the internet in video form - for both computer work and physical tasks. Most badges also require a written test - documented on our wiki as well - that test not just the performance (which demonstrates physical ability and proper sequencing of steps) - but comprehension of design choices and how things work. Badges are granular, and given for specific products. Such as - how to design a Power Cube or Universal Axis, or how to build one of the modules for the Seed Eco-Home.
