Instructor Agreement

 

  1. Purpose. GovLearn Gateway, LLC (Company) is in the business of education services and specializes in offering courses through its platform. The Instructor has expertise in creating specialty courses and agrees to develop and deliver ad-hoc courses on the platform. The Company wishes to compensate the Instructor for each successful viewing of their courses by paying a commission percentage based on description below. 
  2. Referral Arrangement.     
    1. Instructor’s Responsibilities: The Instructor will create and deliver a specialty course to be hosted on the Company’s platform.
    2. Marketing Support: The Company may, at its discretion, provide marketing support for the Instructor’s courses to increase exposure and sales.
    3. Tracking Referrals: Each viewing of the Instructor’s course will be tracked through the Company’s platform to ensure accurate commission calculations.
  3. Compensation.
    1. Commission Rate: Commissions will be based on purchases. Courses may be purchased as part of a bundle and/or individually (ad hoc).  Commissions will be paid on courses purchase and viewed. 
      1. Bundle Purchase Commission: The Company agrees to pay the Instructor a commission equal to 75% of the revenue generated from each sale of their course. If the course is part of a bundled plan, the revenue will be calculated based on an equal rate distribution among all courses in the plan unless otherwise agreed.
        1. Equal Rate Distribution: For bundled plans, the total plan revenue will be divided equally among all courses included in the plan. The Instructor’s commission will be based on the portion attributed to their course.
        2. Example: If a bundled plan costs $1,000 and includes 20 courses, each course is attributed $50 of the plan’s revenue. For a plan sold 10 times in a month, the Instructor’s course revenue would be $500 (10 x $50), and the commission would be calculated as 75% of $500.
      2. Ad hoc Purchase Commission: The Company agrees to pay the Instructor a commission equal to 50% of the revenue generated from each sale of their course.
        1. Rate Set: The Company will set a fair market rate based on demand and the competitive nature of the course content. Many factors may determine course rate, including specialization, demand, popularity, etc. 
        2. Example: If an ad hoc course rate is set at $150, and is sold 10 times in a month, the Instructor’s course revenue would be $1,500 (10 x $150), and the commission would be calculated as 50% of $1,500.
    2. Payment Terms: Payments will be made within thirty (30) days after the end of the month in which revenue is received by the Company. Payments will be issued via Paypal.
    3. Revenue Calculation: Revenue is defined as the net amount received by the Company after deducting transaction fees, taxes, and any applicable refunds.
