Procurement Budget or More commonly known as "Commission"

It is the predefined budget to recruit each student directly using our portals or from verified channel partners. The Institution pays it only after the successful enrolment of the student. This budget is used for three primary purposes

a) Digital Media Promotions to generate more interest by increasing global digital presence
b) Man hours spent on generating complete applications, each application has to undergo our own verification before it is forwarded to the Institution
C) Compensation and Marketing cost towards the Engagement of the Channel Partner ( High School or Verified Recruiter)

Currently, 20 million USD is distributed to the eligible students.
