Apprenticeship Operations

Concept

• Apprenticeship Track 1: 6 hours of work, 2 hours of study daily. Friday is school day. School is 1 hr class per day. To 3 hours of study. Friday is 2 hours of class - focus on culture. 6 hours study. 6+6+6+6.
  • 6 hours of class time, 18 hours study, 24 hours work. 48 hours total. Weekends off.
• Apprenticeship Track 2: 4 hrs work, 4 hrs study daily. Friday class.
• Enterprise track: as soon as Build Mastery is obtained.
• Builder Track: 4x10 week. Friday culture class.
• Apprentices and builders work together. Apprentices leave work early.
• Pay for apprentices - starts after basic competency is gained, at any time. Based on minimum performance data. Builder track - pay is also based on performance (built time tests).
• Extensive battery of testing exists for every task.
• School is build theory/practice - studying each module every day.
• Teaching assistants - get paid to teach as soon as they score high on exams. Applies to builders and apprentices.
• Apprentices and builders are both encouraged into teaching track.
• Enterprise track after build mastery involves hands-on, otherwise the enterprise suffers from insufficient Efficiency of Integration.
  • Enterprise track is management, business model development, final project being 3 replications economic prototypes, after which final projects would be new products. We hire our entrepreneurs - either into management positions such as swarm builds, or into starting operations in other key locations - which promote distribution of OSE Campuses towards a parallel economy.

Duties - Apprentices

• Make cheatsheets in open editable docs
• Surf the CAD files
• Document changes, designs
• Create technical drawings
• Keep Work Log
• Generate documentation
  • Cheatsheets
  • Diagrams
  • Design Rationales
  • Picture record
  • Time log including time stamps on photos
  • Your Scorecard (time and time improvement. Start + at least 1 data point monthly.
  • Generate design guides. Understand that you have something to teach to those who have never done this.
  • Calculatins: weight, cost, speed, performance.

Duties - Builders

• 40 hrs
• Upgrade to design and enterprise tracks when you are ready.

Expectations for the 4 Year Program

• The focus is on gaining discipline required for excellent work
• Routine to be developed is a combination of consistent practice that continuously improves alignment with the OSE core:
  • Morning - Big picture cultivation, continous improvement of product. Ask how you can do something better. R&D on techniques to improve a detail of Product Build Master Mindap breakdown. Example - how to bind corneres of LP smartside.
  • Build Work
    • Picture repository. Timestamped for addition before-after timing sequence. Time lapse action cam suggested, but core tool is cell phone. Ex. [1]. Set up your own, contribute to a collaborative one.
    • Data Collection - Data collection writing down step and time and learnings. Every person keeps their own - spreadsheet or wiki.
    • Product Build Master Mindmap or build procedure - contribute to it. Example of 'mindmap' - Seed Eco-Home 4 Module Breakdown
    • Time log - keep it going.
  • Class time - 1 hr class to 3 hr study ratio is expected.
