Home / Divisions

Hang your own sign. Keep the backing.

Graduates who pass the knowledge certification and get a business plan approved can open an Oasis division anywhere — with capital, brand, insurance, supply chain and a mentor attached. You run it. Oasis stands behind it.

Start the five-year route

What the launch package contains

Not advice and a pat on the back. Seven concrete things, in writing.

Seed capital

$25,000 – $500,000

Sized to what the division actually needs

Capital is scoped to the division type, not handed out as a flat grant. An aviation services division buying an airframe sits at the top of the range; a trades services division buying vehicles and tooling sits at the bottom.

  • Aviation services — $100,000 to $500,000, aircraft acquisition
  • Well and water — $50,000 to $200,000, rig, pump equipment, vehicles
  • Trades services — $25,000 to $150,000, equipment, vehicles, tools

Revenue share

5–15%

Until 1.5× repaid, then 2–3%

Oasis takes a share of gross revenue that varies by division type and capital provided. It runs until cumulative payments equal one and a half times the seed capital, then drops to a long-term 2–3%.

No personal guarantee on the seed capital. The division carries the obligation, not your house.

Brand

Oasis licensing

Use of the Oasis name and reputation on an initial three-year term, renewable. Customers already know the mark.

Mentorship

12 months, paired

A twelve-month mentorship with an experienced division operator who has already run the mistakes you are about to make.

Legal and insurance

The paperwork, pre-built

Standard operating agreement, compliance checklist, and company-negotiated rates on general liability, workers' compensation and professional liability. Aviation divisions add hull and liability cover.

Supply chain

Buy at network prices

Access to bulk purchasing agreements for materials, parts and equipment — the single biggest margin advantage a one-truck operation normally cannot get.

Quality oversight

The part that protects everyone

Annual audits, customer satisfaction monitoring and safety compliance checks. This is the trade: the brand only stays worth licensing if every division holds the standard. Oversight is the price of the name, and it is the reason the name is worth having.

How approval works

Four gates in Year 5. Nothing about this is automatic — the review panel turns people down, and the alternative is a paid internship, not the door.

Qualify

Pass the knowledge certification assessment, complete all Year 4 certification requirements, and hold a clean safety and conduct record.

Weeks 176–178

Submit

Business plan, personal statement, knowledge certification results, letters of reference, and a capital request with a use-of-funds breakdown.

Week 173

Defend

Fifteen-minute presentation and fifteen minutes of questions before a review panel of three to five Oasis leaders. Judged on market opportunity, financial viability, your own competency, brand alignment and risk mitigation.

Week 174

Launch

On approval: entity formation, capital release against the use-of-funds schedule, insurance binding, brand licence execution, and your mentor assignment.

Post-graduation

Four possible answers

The panel returns one of these. Three of the four keep you moving.

Approve

Full approval. Proceed to entity formation and capital release.

Approve with conditions

Named requirements first — additional training, revised financials — then launch.

Defer

Ninety-day review period. Resubmit with improvements; most deferrals are financial modelling, not competence.

Decline

Transition to the Track A internship path inside an existing division. You still graduate, still hold every certification, still vest.

Division types and what they need

Capital, licensing and insurance by division type
Division typeSeed rangeLicensing and cover
Aviation services $100K – $500K FAA operating authority as applicable, hull and liability insurance, A&P oversight
Well and water systems $50K – $200K State well driller licence, pump installer registration, general liability
Plumbing and electrical service $25K – $150K State contractor licence, bonding, workers' compensation
Fabrication and construction $25K – $150K Contractor licence, welding certification currency, general liability
Auto and diesel service $25K – $150K State repair registration, garage-keepers cover, environmental compliance

Licensing is state-administered and varies by jurisdiction. Ranges are from the institute's division framework and are subject to review at the time of application. Nothing here is a franchise offering or an offer of securities.

The spin-off clause

Divisions operate under the Oasis umbrella initially, with the option to spin off later. That is written in from the start, and it is deliberate: a network held together by a contract nobody can leave is not a network, it is a trap.

If you spin off, your ESOP participation and your annuity are unaffected — they belong to you as a graduate, not to your division. The revenue-share obligation on capital already advanced survives the spin-off until it is satisfied.

The network's growth model runs on this working: graduates open divisions, divisions generate service revenue, revenue share funds the next cohort's training. Every division that succeeds pays for students who have not enrolled yet.
