Seven commission-only roles,
and what they actually pay

Someone with real access inside workforce development or employer training — a workforce board consultant, a WIOA or apprenticeship coordinator, an employer’s L&D lead, a union training fund administrator, or a grant writer who works with these budgets.

• Introduce FHG where an organization already has a training budget and a roadmap
• Know which funding stream applies — WIOA, employer tuition assistance, apprenticeship, Perkins
• Hand off — we run the seats conversation and the invoicing from there
• Tell us early when it is not a fit, so nobody wastes a funding cycle

These are adult learners working toward named certifications, so the buyer is a workforce or employer budget rather than an education one. The same ten percent at every size — there is no band where finding a larger client earns you less.

If you work inside the organization doing the buying, say so before anything is agreed. Paying an employee to influence their own employer’s purchase is a conflict in most organizations, and we will not put you in that position without you knowing.

Someone inside education — a CTE director, a district technology coordinator, a continuing-education staffer, a school counsellor, or a teacher whose administration listens to them.

• Introduce FHG Compass where a school already wants an IT pathway and has no platform
• Understand the buying cycle — budgets are set months ahead and mid-year is usually a no
• Hand off — we run the scope, the seat count and the consent process from there
• Tell us what the material gets wrong for your students

Compass is built for people starting from nothing, and protections engage automatically when a learner is under 18 — guardian consent before the account exists, no advertising, no third-party tracking, and a published deletion schedule. That is usually the first thing a district asks about and it is already answered.

Education budgets are slower than commercial ones and often annual. A conversation in March about a September start is normal, and we will not push a school to decide faster than its own cycle allows.

Someone with standing in a faith network or a community organization — a ministerial association, a denominational body, a congregation’s workforce or youth ministry, a nonprofit program director.

• Introduce FHG where a congregation or organization is already doing workforce or youth development
• Work with program leaders rather than pitching from a platform
• Hand off — we run the seats conversation from there
• Support the people who enroll, not only the ones who sign up

Congregations usually start small — five seats is a real starting point and the block grows. A congregation serving both adults and young people can use Compass and University together, and the seat count is aggregated across both rather than bought twice.

A rule that is not decoration: never use a pastoral relationship as a sales channel. If someone is in your care, they are not a referral opportunity, and if an organization is not a fit, that is a complete answer we would rather hear than a maybe.

Someone who sees a lot of companies’ operating costs — a fractional CFO, a bookkeeper, an insurance broker, an M&A advisor. You make an introduction, not a sale.

• Introduce a business with an outsourced IT provider and roughly 20 to 500 staff
• Hand off — we run the free exposure check and the free mapping call from there
• Tell us early when it is not a fit, so nobody wastes a quarter

A fixed-fee audit runs $7,500 to $25,000 depending on the environment. You are paid once we have been paid — not on signature, not on a proposal, on a collected invoice.

There is no fee unless the engagement closes and the invoice clears. We would rather pay less often on real work than more often on introductions that go nowhere.

Someone with a genuine audience in IT careers, certification study, career change or veteran transition — a channel, a newsletter, a community, a podcast. Size matters less than whether your people trust what you recommend.

• Introduce the platform where it genuinely fits your audience
• Say plainly what it does not do — no job promises, no placement rates, no certification issued
• Tell us what your audience asks that we have not answered

One rate, every referral, no thresholds to cross. Paid monthly for up to three months per person, after their first full billing cycle. Forty active referrals is $360 a month while they are in that window. The way to earn more here is to introduce an organization — that is a partner arrangement at 10% of first-year contract value, and we will talk to you about it.

One complete module is published in full at university.fairleyholdings.com/sample-module — no account, no email. Read it before you decide whether to put your name next to us. We would rather you did.

Someone already inside veteran transition — a VSO employment officer, a TAP facilitator, a Hire Heroes mentor, a spouse network organiser, or a veteran other veterans come to for advice.

• Introduce FHG University where it genuinely fits — not everywhere
• Answer what a transitioning member actually asks: how long, how much, does it lead anywhere
• Tell people plainly when it is not right for them

You do not need to deliver an organization to start. Forty individuals introduced in your own community earns $360 a month while they are in window — and if you would rather introduce the organization itself, that is a partner arrangement at 10% and we will talk to you about it.

If you are a government employee or work somewhere with rules about accepting referral fees, tell us and we will set you up without one. The platform’s free tier is worth pointing people at whether or not anyone is paid for it.

A fluent Spanish speaker embedded in a Latino community — a church, a chamber of commerce, a workforce or immigrant-services organization. Community standing matters more than sales experience.

• Introduce the platform through relationships you already hold
• Explain honestly which certification exams can be sat in Spanish and which cannot
• Tell us what the material gets wrong for Spanish speakers

One rate, every referral, no thresholds. Forty active referrals is $360 a month while they are in window. To earn more, introduce an organization — 10% of first-year contract value, and we will talk to you about it.

Stated up front: the material is in English and not every certification exam is offered in Spanish. Where an exam is English-only we say so before anyone pays, and so must you.
