Student Referral Program
Why is the college giving $300 - $1000 reward for student referral?
The Academy of Learning understands that our most valuable assets are our quality of service and the "Word of mouth" referrals. Did you know that over 30% of our students first learn about our college through a referral? It’s true! We encourage you to join in inviting more students to our college who would benefit from our life-changing educational programs. Like any business, we spend a good portion of our budget on advertising and promoting the benefits of our programs and services to our potential clients. Rather than spending the money this way, we would rather reward our clients and our partners directly for referring students to our college.
How does it work?
If you know somebody who needs to upgrade their skills and who is:
- On E.I., WSIB, ODSP or Social Assistance
- In need of Financial Assistance
- Unemployed or underemployed
- A Single Parent
- A New Immigrant or
- A Protected Person
Tell them about the services and benefits offered by our college. You can open the door for somebody who is in need of a career upgrade and you will get rewarded for your help.
How do I refer a friend? How much of my time is involved?
Fill the attached form with your referrals’ contact information and send it to our college by mail, fax or email. Alternatively, you can give us a call, one of our representatives will be more than happy to collect the information from you. And with that, your job is done! That’s it!
What happens next? When do I get the reward?
- Our College’s admissions representative will contact each referred client for an interview
- We will provide a free career consultation, select the right career program, assist in filing any funding applications (if applicable), and finalize the enrolment process
- The client will then start a full-time diploma program
- As soon as the client has completed 2 months of any diploma program, we will contact you to arrange delivery of your reward
- Valid photo ID must be presented to receive the reward; all income taxes earned in this program are the responsibility of the participant.
- In the event of ANY dispute, Academy of Learning’s decision shall be final. Academy of Learning reserves the right to modify or discontinue this referral program at any time.
How much do I get when my referral is enrolled?

What if my referral did not enroll in your college? (What is the "2nd Chance Reward System"?)
- To thank you for taking the time to submit the referral form; we have a 2-chance reward system.
- The first chance is for enrolled referrals (as outlined above), and the second chance is for all qualified referrals (enrolled or not enrolled).
- As soon as your referral shows up for scheduled appointment, you will be qualified for a quarterly draw with a chance to win either one grand prize of $500 or one of 2 second prizes of $100 each.
- Each qualified referral will be registered in our central database for auditing purposes, and the winners will be contacted and announced in our college and on our website. Each referral you enter becomes an entry into our draw.
- You can submit as many referrals as you like, but please help us remain sensitive to the privacy wishes of those you refer, only refer contacts you think would be interested in education and skills upgrading. We have scheduled the next 2 draws on Fridays - November 21st, 2008 at 3pm & February 20th, 2009 at 3pm. You are welcome to come to our college at the address below to witness the draw.
I am interested in getting more information about your programs, can I come by your college anytime?
You are welcome to visit our college during operating hours, though we highly recommend making an appointment with one of our admissions staff who will personally see to your needs at a time that is mutually convenient. Drop-ins will be seen as soon as possible but priority will be given to clients who have pre-booked appointments
