FBA Program Design

First principles (non-negotiables)

These constraints clarify everything else:

OSE optimizes for enterprise founders, not employees.

• Builder ≠ laborer.
• Designer ≠ academic.
• Everyone is on a trajectory toward sovereign production capacity.

Six months is the hard filter.

• Anyone not enterprise-capable in 6 months is not a peak performer in this environment.
• Longer tracks are allowed only if they are deeper, not slower.

Work produces value immediately.

• No “school-only” tracks.
• Every track touches real production, even if at different intensities.

Stipends follow demonstrated production competence.

• No stipends for intention - stipend eligibility depends on benchmarking against professional grade work (burndown level achieved in Extreme Enterprise Track)
• Eeducational allowances tied to demonstrated competence
• Stipends unlock after verified skill → production → revenue.
