How You Earn

Build Strong Monthly Earning Potential

Your earning potential grows with the number of eligible learners you successfully guide through the recruitment and enrolment process. Dedicated part-time recruiters can work toward a strong income while building valuable professional experience.

Average Monthly Earning Potential

J$180K–J$240K

per month

A dedicated part-time Professional Student Recruiter achieving approximately 24–32 successful undergraduate enrolments over one 8-month college year can build average monthly earning potential of approximately J$180,000–J$240,000.

How that income is built

Undergraduate recruitment provides a simple path from successful enrolments to income.

Approx. J$60,000 New-enrolment income for each eligible undergraduate learner successfully enrolled.

24 successful enrolments Produces approximately J$1,440,000 over one 8-month college year.

32 successful enrolments Produces approximately J$1,920,000 over one 8-month college year.

Professional Student Recruiter Earnings

The monthly earning potential is shown first, followed by the corresponding 8-month college-year and 12-month recruitment figures.

Average Monthly Earning Potential	Performance Level	8-Month College Year Successful Enrolments	8-Month College Year Earning Potential	12-Month Period Successful Enrolments	12-Month Period Earning Potential
J$180,000	Expected Target	24	J$1,440,000	36	J$2,160,000
J$240,000	High Target	32	J$1,920,000	48	J$2,880,000

J$180K Monthly Average

Approximately 24 successful undergraduate enrolments across the 8-month college year.

J$240K Monthly Average

Approximately 32 successful undergraduate enrolments across the 8-month college year.

12-Month Growth

Maintaining the same recruitment pace produces approximately 36–48 successful enrolments over 12 months.

Successful enrolments generate earnings — not enquiries or applications.

Prospects, leads and applications form part of your recruitment pipeline. Applicable recruiter earnings are generated when an eligible learner successfully completes the required enrolment process.

Your target is measured across the college year.

You do not need to achieve the same number of enrolments every month. Some recruitment periods are naturally busier than others. What matters is reaching your cumulative college-year target.

See How Targets Work

Your Recruitment Target

Your Target Is Measured Across the College Year

Recruitment activity naturally rises and falls throughout the year. You are not expected to produce the same number of enrolments every month. What matters is your cumulative performance across the full 8-month college year.

Expected College-Year Target

successful undergraduate enrolments

Reach at least 24 successful undergraduate enrolments during the 8-month college year to meet the expected recruitment target.

Flexibility for busy and slower periods

Approximately three enrolments per month is a useful planning benchmark, but it is not a mandatory monthly quota.

✓

Some months may be quieter A slower month does not automatically mean you are behind on your college-year target.

✓

Peak periods can produce more enrolments Busy admissions periods may contribute a larger share of your college-year results.

✓

Your total performance matters The primary benchmark is the number of successful enrolments achieved across the entire qualifying period.

Example: Different months, same successful result

This recruiter does not enrol three learners every month, but still reaches the expected 24-enrolment college-year target.

College-Year Total 24

Month 1 1

Month 2 2

Month 3 5

Month 4 4

Month 5 2

Month 6 3

Month 7 4

Month 8 3

1 + 2 + 5 + 4 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 3 = 24 The college-year target is achieved even though monthly results vary.

Expected Performance

24 Enrolments

Achieve at least 24 successful undergraduate enrolments across one 8-month college year. This is equivalent to approximately three successful enrolments per month on average.

High Performance

32+ Enrolments

Achieving 32 or more successful undergraduate enrolments across the college year represents the higher performance benchmark and increases overall earning potential.

✓

Stay active. Build your pipeline. Finish the college year strong.

Consistent prospecting, applicant follow-up and admissions support remain important throughout the year, but your enrolment results are evaluated cumulatively so you can take advantage of natural peaks in recruitment activity.

Performance & Success

See What Success Looks Like

Successful recruitment is not simply about finding people. It is about building a strong prospect pipeline, communicating accurately, following through consistently and helping suitable learners progress from initial interest to successful enrolment.

Your Performance Matters

Strong recruiters combine results with professional practice.

AIMu looks at the quality of your recruitment activity as well as the number of successful enrolments you produce. Sustainable success comes from a healthy pipeline, effective follow-up, accurate guidance, organised records and a strong learner experience.

24 Expected successful undergraduate enrolments per 8-month year

32+ High-performance college-year benchmark

8 Months Full college-year performance period

Quality + Results Both matter

Your Key Performance Areas

Success Is Measured Across More Than One Number

These are the areas that help demonstrate whether you are developing into an effective, professional and sustainable student recruiter.

Successful Enrolments

Build toward the expected benchmark of 24 eligible successful undergraduate enrolments across the 8-month college year, with 32 or more representing stronger performance.

Pipeline Quality

Maintain a healthy flow of prospective learners at different stages rather than depending on occasional enquiries or last-minute recruitment activity.

Conversion

Move suitable prospects effectively from enquiry to consultation, application and ultimately successful enrolment through informed and professional guidance.

Timely Follow-Up

Follow up consistently and professionally so promising prospects do not disappear simply because communication was delayed or incomplete.

Accurate Information

Explain programmes, entry requirements, tuition, study options and progression accurately without making promises or commitments outside your authority.

Records & Reporting

Keep prospect records, recruitment activity, follow-up status and required reporting accurate, current and professionally maintained.

Learner Experience

Give prospective learners a professional, helpful and respectful experience from first contact through enrolment and transition into their studies.

Learner Retention

Successful recruitment should lead to learners who remain engaged and progress in their studies. Retention becomes increasingly important as you move toward leadership.

Professional Conduct

Protect confidentiality, represent AIMu appropriately, communicate ethically and maintain the professional standards expected when dealing with learners and organisations.

The Bigger Picture

Quality and Quantity Work Together

High enquiry numbers alone do not define strong recruitment. AIMu needs recruiters who produce results while also protecting the quality of the learner experience and the integrity of the admissions process.

Build qualified prospects, not simply contact lists

Follow through from first contact to enrolment

Communicate programme information accurately

Keep recruitment records organised and current

Treat prospects professionally and ethically

Support a positive learner transition after enrolment

Do You Have the Right Strengths for This Role?

Strong recruiters are confident communicators, organised relationship builders who can work independently, follow through consistently and represent AIMu professionally.

See Who We’re Looking For

Candidate Profile

Who We’re Looking For

You do not need to arrive as an experienced admissions professional. What matters is whether you bring the communication ability, organisation, professionalism and drive needed to build relationships and develop into an effective student recruiter.

Sales

Education

Customer Service

Marketing

Counselling or Advising

Business Development

Become a Recruitment Team Lead

Strong performance can lead to greater responsibility, professional development and a continuing income opportunity. Recruitment Team Lead status is earned by demonstrating sustained results, leadership ability and readiness to support the performance of others.

More Than a Promotion

Recruitment Team Leads continue developing their own recruitment portfolio while taking greater responsibility for new recruiters, assignments, team performance, projects and institutional recruitment development.

✓

Leadership responsibility

Coordinate, guide and support other Professional Student Recruiters.

✓

Continuing Base Pay opportunity

Eligible retained learners may begin generating Base Pay from their second college year.

Qualifying Period 8 Months

24+

Successful Enrolments

Achieve at least 24 successful undergraduate enrolments during the qualifying 8-month college year.

Consecutive Months

Demonstrate sustained professional recruitment activity and satisfactory performance over one complete college year.

✓

Leadership Readiness

Demonstrate the ability to organise, communicate, guide others, solve problems and accept responsibility for outcomes.

✓

Management Approval

Team Lead appointment is subject to satisfactory performance review, organisational requirements and formal approval.

The 24-enrolment requirement is a college-year target — not a monthly quota.

A recruiter does not have to achieve three enrolments in every individual month. Some periods are naturally busier than others. What matters for the recruitment KPI is achieving at least 24 successful enrolments across the complete 8-month qualifying college year while maintaining satisfactory recruitment activity and professional performance.

In Addition to Results, You Must Demonstrate Leadership

Team Leads are responsible for other people and institutional assignments. Strong recruitment numbers alone do not demonstrate readiness for that responsibility.

Leadership Ability

Demonstrate initiative, accountability and the ability to motivate, guide and support other recruiters.

Organisation & Planning

Plan activities, coordinate assignments, manage priorities, monitor deadlines and follow through to completion.

Excellent Communication

Communicate expectations clearly, provide constructive guidance and maintain professional team and stakeholder relationships.

Public Speaking

Demonstrate confidence when leading meetings, delivering presentations and representing AIMu at recruitment activities.

Coaching & Development

Leadership means accepting responsibility for more than your personal recruitment portfolio.

Coordinate newly appointed recruiters

Support individual recruiter assignments

Monitor team recruitment pipelines

Coach recruiters toward assigned goals

Coordinate outreach and recruitment activities

Support recruitment events and campaigns

Participate in projects and new developments

The Path to Team Lead

Leadership progression is based on demonstrated performance and readiness rather than time served alone.

Perform Complete one full 8-month college year and achieve the required cumulative recruitment target.

Demonstrate Show leadership, organisation, communication, professionalism and the ability to support others.

Develop Complete required training and professional development for increased leadership responsibility.

Qualify Complete performance review and receive formal management approval for Team Lead appointment.

Meeting 24 enrolments does not automatically make someone a Team Lead.

The enrolment target establishes the minimum recruitment-performance requirement. Appointment also depends on learner retention, professionalism, leadership ability, organisation, communication, professional development, organisational requirements and management approval.

Leadership can also create continuing income potential.

Once appointed and eligible, a Recruitment Team Lead can begin building Base Pay from retained learners as they progress beyond their first college year.

See How Base Pay Works

Click to set custom HTML

Team Lead Continuing Base Pay

Recruit Today. Build a Portfolio for Tomorrow.

Team Lead status creates an opportunity to earn from new enrolments while building continuing Base Pay from eligible learners who remain enrolled and progress through their regular programme life.

Continuing Team Lead Base Pay J$30,000 per eligible retained learner per 8-month college year

Base Pay begins from the learner’s second college year and may continue for the remainder of that learner’s regular programme life while the learner and Team Lead remain eligible.

How one learner moves through your portfolio

College Year 1 — New Enrolment

The eligible undergraduate learner generates the applicable new-enrolment payment of approximately J$60,000. The learner is not yet included in Base Pay.

College Year 2 — Base Pay Begins

If the learner remains actively enrolled and eligible, the learner may now generate J$30,000 in Team Lead Base Pay for the applicable college year.

Y3+

Remaining Regular Programme Life

Base Pay may continue during each subsequent eligible college year until the learner reaches the end of the regular programme life or otherwise ceases to qualify.

Year 1 builds the portfolio. Year 2 onward can create continuing Base Pay.

A recruited learner is not added to Base Pay during the first college year, while the new-enrolment payment of approximately J$60,000 is being earned. Beginning in the learner’s second college year, an eligible Recruitment Team Lead may receive J$30,000 per eligible retained learner for each 8-month college year for the remainder of that learner’s regular programme life.

Why the Portfolio Becomes More Valuable Over Time

Each new college year gives a Team Lead an opportunity to recruit another cohort while learners recruited in earlier years move into or continue within the Base Pay portfolio.

Recruit a New Cohort

New eligible undergraduate enrolments can generate approximately J$60,000 each during their first college year.

Retain Previous Learners

Learners who progress into their second eligible college year can begin adding J$30,000 each to the Team Lead Base Pay portfolio.

Build Year After Year

Continue recruiting new cohorts while qualifying previous cohorts contribute Base Pay during the remainder of their programme life.

Example: Building a Portfolio Over Five College Years

This illustration assumes the Team Lead recruits 24 new eligible learners every college year, the applicable learners remain eligible, and each cohort has a three-college-year regular programme life.

Expected Target 24 New Learners

College Year	New Learners	New-Enrolment Income	Learners Generating Base Pay	Continuing Base Pay	Potential Combined Earnings
Year 1	24	J$1,440,000	0	J$0	J$1,440,000
Year 2	24	J$1,440,000	24	J$720,000	J$2,160,000
Year 3	24	J$1,440,000	48	J$1,440,000	J$2,880,000
Year 4	24	J$1,440,000	48	J$1,440,000	J$2,880,000
Year 5	24	J$1,440,000	48	J$1,440,000	J$2,880,000

5-Year New-Enrolment Income J$7,200,000

5-Year Continuing Base Pay J$5,040,000

Potential 5-Year Combined Earnings J$12,240,000

What if you consistently achieve the high target?

A Team Lead recruiting 32 new eligible learners per college year can build an even larger active portfolio while continuing to generate income from new enrolments.

High Target 32 New Learners

Year 1 J$1.92M

Year 2 J$2.88M

Year 3 J$3.84M

Year 4 J$3.84M

Year 5 J$3.84M

The Long-Term Value Is in Building and Maintaining the Portfolio

The Team Lead opportunity rewards both recruitment and retention. Each new cohort creates current new-enrolment income and can also become part of the Team Lead’s future Base Pay portfolio.

Current Income

Continue earning applicable new-enrolment income from eligible learners recruited during the current college year.

Continuing Income

Eligible learners recruited in previous years can generate continuing Base Pay while they remain within their regular programme life.

Portfolio Growth

Recruit, retain and replenish the portfolio year after year to expand long-term earning potential.

Continuing Base Pay depends on continuing eligibility.

Base Pay is subject to the learner remaining actively enrolled and eligible, the Team Lead maintaining the required appointment status, personal and assigned-team targets, learner-retention standards, professional-development requirements, institutional requirements and the applicable remuneration agreement.

Build the status. Maintain the performance.

Recruitment Team Lead status and continuing Base Pay must be maintained through satisfactory personal performance, assigned-team results, leadership, retention and professional development.

Maintaining Team Lead Status

Maintaining Leadership Status

Team Lead Status Is Earned — and Maintained

Becoming a Recruitment Team Lead is an achievement. Remaining a Team Lead requires continued personal performance, effective team leadership, learner retention, professional development and satisfactory delivery of assigned responsibilities.

Leadership Accountability

Your success is measured by both your results and your team’s results.

Team Leads continue to maintain their own recruitment portfolio while helping assigned recruiters perform effectively. Leadership therefore adds responsibility rather than replacing the Team Lead’s individual performance expectations.

To maintain Team Lead status, continue to:

✓

Meet personal recruitment goals Maintain the applicable individual annual or college-year target.

✓

Meet assigned-team goals Coordinate and support the team toward its applicable cumulative target.

✓

Maintain leadership standards Continue demonstrating organisation, communication, professionalism and accountability.

✓

Complete professional development Participate in required leadership, recruitment and professional-development activities.

Two Performance Goals Must Be Maintained

A Team Lead is accountable for personal production and for the effective performance of the recruiters assigned to the team.

Personal Performance

Team Lead status does not remove the requirement to remain an effective Professional Student Recruiter.

Meet the applicable personal college-year or annual enrolment target
Maintain an active and properly managed applicant pipeline
Maintain required learner-retention standards
Keep personal recruitment records accurate and current
Continue modelling professional recruitment standards

Assigned-Team Performance

The Team Lead is also responsible for helping assigned recruiters organise, develop and work toward their agreed performance goals.

Work toward the applicable cumulative assigned-team recruitment target
Coordinate and support newly appointed recruiters
Monitor team pipelines, activity and follow-up
Coach recruiters who require additional support
Escalate significant performance or operational concerns when required

Continuing Team Lead Performance Standards

Team Lead performance is broader than enrolment numbers. Leadership, recruiter development, assignments, projects, professional development and service quality also matter.

Personal Recruitment

Meet the applicable cumulative personal recruitment target for the performance year.

Assigned-Team Results

Help the assigned recruitment team work toward and achieve its applicable cumulative goals.

Learner Retention

Maintain the required learner-retention standard across eligible personal and applicable team portfolios.

New Recruiter Development

Provide effective onboarding, orientation, coaching and practical support to assigned new recruiters.

Assignments

Coordinate assigned recruitment activities and ensure that responsibilities are understood, followed up and completed.

Projects & Developments

Complete or effectively coordinate assigned recruitment, outreach, event, campaign or development projects.

Professional Development

Complete required leadership, communication, project, performance and recruitment-development activities.

Records & Reporting

Maintain accurate records and submit required recruitment, team and project reports within applicable timelines.

✓

Leadership Conduct

Maintain professional communication, sound judgement, reliability, confidentiality and ethical conduct.

Performance is assessed across the applicable performance period.

Recruitment is seasonal. A single slower month should not determine Team Lead status where cumulative personal and team performance remains on track. Performance is reviewed across the full applicable college-year or annual period, together with leadership quality, retention and professional responsibilities.

Maintaining Eligibility

Team Lead Status and Base Pay Can Be Lost

Team Lead status is a continuing performance-based leadership appointment. It is not a permanent entitlement once awarded.

A Recruitment Team Lead may become ineligible to continue in the leadership role where required performance or professional standards are not maintained. This may include failure to:

Meet the applicable personal annual or college-year recruitment goal

Meet the applicable assigned-team annual or college-year goal

Maintain required learner-retention standards

Properly coordinate or support assigned recruiters

Complete required leadership or professional development

Complete assigned projects, campaigns or development responsibilities

Maintain required records, reports and administrative standards

Maintain satisfactory professional, ethical and leadership conduct

Team Lead Status

Leadership appointment may end

Where required standards are not maintained, AIMu may review or remove the individual’s Recruitment Team Lead status subject to the applicable appointment and remuneration arrangements.

Continuing Base Pay

Base Pay eligibility is linked to Team Lead status

Where Team Lead status or continuing eligibility is lost, the individual may also cease to qualify for continuing Team Lead Base Pay associated with eligible retained learners.

Leadership rewards sustained performance — not one successful year.

The strongest Team Leads continue producing results personally, build capable recruiters, maintain learner portfolios, deliver assignments and projects, complete professional development and contribute positively to AIMu’s recruitment growth.

Strong performance can open even more opportunities.

High-performing recruiters and Team Leads may also qualify for recognition, incentives and continued advancement through the AIMu recruitment leadership pathway.

Explore Incentives & Progression

Financial Growth · Recognition · Career Progression

Build Income. Build a Team. Build a Career.

Strong performance can create more than current recruitment income. As you progress into leadership, you can build continuing Base Pay, develop productive recruiters, qualify for additional team-performance income and incentives, and advance through AIMu’s recruitment leadership pathway.

The Bigger Opportunity

Your financial opportunity can grow as your responsibility grows.

Professional Student Recruiters begin by building their own enrolment results. High performers can progress into leadership, develop a continuing learner portfolio and help other recruiters become productive.

Your opportunity can develop across four areas:

Personal recruitment income

Continue earning from your own eligible new undergraduate enrolments.

Continuing Base Pay

Build income from eligible retained learners beginning in their second college year.

Team-productivity income

Team Leads may qualify for additional income linked to approved performance outcomes generated by assigned recruiters.

Incentives & advancement

Strong results may also create opportunities for recognition, travel benefits and further recruitment leadership.

Team Lead Financial Growth

Three Potential Income Streams as You Progress

Eligible Team Leads can continue producing personally while building continuing value from retained learners and developing the productivity of their assigned recruitment team.

INCOME STREAM 01

New-Enrolment Income

Approx. J$60,000 per eligible new undergraduate enrolment

Team Leads continue recruiting personally and can continue earning the applicable new-enrolment amount for eligible learners successfully enrolled during the current college year.

INCOME STREAM 02

Continuing Base Pay

J$30,000 per eligible retained learner per 8-month college year

Beginning in an eligible learner’s second college year, Continuing Base Pay may be earned for the remainder of the learner’s regular programme life while applicable eligibility requirements continue to be met.

INCOME STREAM 03

Team-Productivity Income

Additional income opportunity for eligible Team Leads

Depending on the approved remuneration arrangement, Team Leads may qualify for additional income or incentives connected to eligible enrolments or other approved results generated by assigned recruiters.

Illustrative Financial Growth

What the 24-Enrolment Portfolio Could Look Like

High-Performance Illustration

What if you consistently recruit 32 new learners per college year?

Under the same portfolio assumptions, a high-performing Team Lead recruiting 32 eligible new undergraduate learners per college year could potentially generate approximately J$2,880,000 in College Year 2 and approximately J$3,840,000 per college year from College Year 3 onward from personal new-enrolment income and Continuing Base Pay — before any additional income attributable to assigned-team productivity.

Team Leadership Can Add Another Income Dimension

Help Your Recruiters Become Productive

A Team Lead is responsible for more than personal production. Part of the leadership role is helping assigned recruiters develop productive pipelines, improve conversion, reach eligible enrolments and maintain strong recruitment practices.

Where provided under the applicable remuneration arrangement, eligible Team Leads may receive additional income or incentives connected to approved team-productivity outcomes.

Develop productive new recruiters

Improve recruiter conversion

Support assigned-team enrolments

Maintain team recruitment activity

Support learner retention

Meet assigned-team goals

Team-productivity income is additional and is not included in the financial illustrations above.

The financial illustrations show potential personal new-enrolment income and Continuing Base Pay only. Team-productivity compensation has not been assigned a fixed amount in these illustrations and depends on actual eligible team results, continuing Team Lead eligibility and the applicable approved remuneration agreement. Actual earnings are not guaranteed.

Performance Incentives & Recognition

Financial growth is only one part of the opportunity. Recruiters and Team Leads who achieve applicable performance and development standards may also qualify for additional recognition and benefits.

Travel Opportunities

Qualifying performance programmes may include approved local or international travel opportunities and airline-related benefits.

Hotel & Accommodation Benefits

The Role

Working as a Professional Student Recruiter

Can I work part-time, remotely or from the office?

Depending on the appointment and organisational requirements, opportunities may include full-time, part-time, remote, office-based and flexible working arrangements.

Whatever the arrangement, recruiters are expected to remain active, manage prospects professionally, maintain follow-up and work toward the applicable college-year targets.

What does a Professional Student Recruiter actually do?

The role combines student recruitment, admissions guidance, relationship management, outreach, networking, applicant follow-up and learner support.

Identify and engage prospective learners
Conduct admissions consultations
Explain programme and progression options
Support applicants through the admissions process
Maintain applicant follow-up
Participate in events, presentations and outreach
Maintain accurate recruitment records
Support appropriate learner retention activity

Do I need previous student recruitment experience?

Previous experience can be helpful, but transferable experience in sales, education, customer service, marketing, recruitment, business development or counselling may also provide useful preparation.

Shortlisted candidates should be willing to complete the applicable AIMu recruitment and admissions training.

Building Your Recruitment Business

Finding Prospective Learners

Strong recruiters develop multiple sources of prospective learners instead of relying on one list of leads.

How do I find prospective learners and generate business?

Develop a continuous recruitment pipeline by identifying people, groups and organisations where suitable prospective learners can be reached.

Potential sources include:

Your personal and professional network
Referrals from learners, graduates, colleagues and contacts
Schools and training organisations
Employers and workplaces
Businesses and professional organisations
Community organisations and organised groups
Career fairs and education fairs
Presentations and information sessions
Approved social-media and digital outreach
Professional networking
Previous enquiries requiring follow-up
AIMu recruitment campaigns and assigned outreach

The objective is to build a continuous pipeline of qualified prospective learners, not wait until registration periods to begin prospecting.

Will AIMu provide leads, or do I need to find my own prospects?

Recruiters may participate in AIMu campaigns, enquiries, recruitment activities, events or assigned opportunities. However, a Professional Student Recruiter should also be able to develop an independent pipeline through networking, referrals, outreach and relationship building.

Developing your own sources of prospects is an important part of building a sustainable recruitment business.

How can I develop business with companies and organisations?

Businesses and organisations can become valuable sources of prospective learners, especially where employees need additional qualifications, professional development or advancement opportunities.

Identify organisations with relevant workforce-development needs
Establish contact with an appropriate representative
Learn about employee education needs
Introduce relevant AIMu programmes
Offer approved information sessions or presentations
Provide information to interested employees
Maintain the relationship for future intakes

The aim is to develop an ongoing professional relationship, rather than pursue only a single enrolment.

How do I build a referral network?

Strong service creates referrals. Prospective learners are more likely to recommend a recruiter who responds promptly, provides accurate information and treats them professionally.

Referral relationships can develop from:

Successfully enrolled learners
Existing professional contacts
Previous prospects
Businesses and employers
Schools and community contacts
Event participants
Professional networking relationships

Over time, referrals can reduce the need to continually rebuild your recruitment pipeline from zero.

From Prospect to Applicant

What Happens After You Find Someone Interested?

1. Identify Find a potential learner

2. Discover Understand their goals

3. Match Identify a suitable pathway

4. Guide Support application and admissions

5. Follow Up Support enrolment and retention

How do I know whether someone is a good prospective learner?

Start by understanding the person rather than immediately trying to recommend a programme.

Learn about:

Their current qualifications
Their professional or career goals
The subject area they want to study
The qualification level they may need
Their previous work experience
Their preferred study arrangement
Their preferred starting period
Whether they may satisfy applicable entry requirements
Whether they are genuinely prepared to continue with the process

The goal is to identify a suitable education opportunity for the person, not simply place every prospect into the same programme.

I have identified a prospective learner. What should I do next?

Move from prospecting into a structured admissions conversation.

Connect: introduce yourself and establish the purpose of the conversation.
Discover: ask about education, experience, career goals and study interests.
Match: identify the most appropriate AIMu programme or progression pathway.
Explain: discuss the programme, entry requirements, duration, study format, tuition and progression.
Confirm: determine whether the prospective learner wants to move forward.
Guide: provide the approved application route and explain the next steps.
Record: maintain accurate prospect and follow-up information.
Follow up: continue supporting the applicant through the required admissions and enrolment stages.

How should I assist a prospective learner after they show interest?

Your role is to make the admissions journey easier to understand and help the prospect make an informed decision.

Explain available programme options
Explain applicable entry requirements
Discuss available study arrangements
Provide accurate tuition information
Explain progression pathways
Direct the prospect to the correct application route
Explain required supporting information or documents
Check whether important application steps remain incomplete
Provide relevant deadline reminders
Connect the applicant with the appropriate AIMu department where needed

Recruiters provide information, guidance and professional follow-through. Formal admissions decisions remain subject to authorised institutional processes.

What questions should I ask during a consultation?

Good consultations are conversations, not sales scripts. Useful questions include:

What are you hoping to achieve professionally?
What qualifications do you currently have?
What field are you interested in?
Are you currently working?
What type of study arrangement works best for you?
When would you like to begin?
Have you studied at college or university before?
What questions or concerns do you have about returning to study?

The answers help the recruiter identify an appropriate pathway and determine the next step.

What if the prospective learner is interested but not ready now?

Not every qualified prospect will enrol immediately. They may need additional time because of work, finances, family responsibilities or their preferred starting date.

Record the prospect accurately
Identify the likely future intake
Ask permission to maintain contact
Schedule future follow-up
Provide relevant updates when appropriate

A prospect who is not ready today can become a future enrolment if the relationship is managed professionally.

How often should I follow up?

Follow-up should be purposeful and professional rather than excessive. Frequency depends on the stage of the applicant journey.

Follow up after a consultation when a decision is pending
Follow up when an interested prospect has not yet applied
Follow up when an application is incomplete
Provide reminders before relevant deadlines
Respond promptly when a prospect requests information
Maintain appropriate communication after enrolment

Managing Your Business

Pipeline, Follow-Up & Conversion

What is a recruitment pipeline?

Your recruitment pipeline is the group of people currently moving through different stages of the recruitment process.

A simple pipeline might include:

Prospects identified
Prospects contacted
Consultations completed
Interested prospects
Applications started
Applications completed
Eligible applicants progressing toward enrolment
Successfully enrolled learners

Pipeline management helps you know who needs follow-up and whether you have enough active opportunities to reach your target.

What does conversion mean in student recruitment?

Conversion means successfully helping suitable prospects move from one stage of the recruitment process to the next.

Enquiry → consultation
Consultation → application
Application → completed admissions process
Eligible applicant → successful enrolment

Effective conversion does not require pressure. It comes from identifying suitable prospects, communicating value clearly, answering questions accurately and maintaining professional follow-up.

Does my responsibility end when the learner enrols?

No. Appropriate post-enrolment communication can help support a positive learner experience and retention.

Support a positive transition into study
Direct learners to appropriate AIMu support channels
Help identify issues affecting continuation
Encourage appropriate engagement and progression
Maintain a professional learner relationship
Support learner retention

Retention also becomes increasingly important for Team Leads because eligible retained learners can form part of the Continuing Base Pay portfolio.

What should I avoid when recruiting?

Recruiters should not:

Provide inaccurate programme information
Promise admission before an authorised decision
Guarantee employment or academic outcomes
Misrepresent tuition or qualification information
Pressure unsuitable prospects to enrol
Ignore confidentiality requirements
Make unauthorised commitments on behalf of AIMu
Allow applicant records to become inaccurate

Strong recruitment should be built on accuracy, ethical guidance, professional service and trust.

Performance

Targets & Earning Potential

How much can a dedicated part-time recruiter potentially earn?

At approximately J$60,000 per eligible successful undergraduate enrolment:

24 enrolments: approximately J$1,440,000 during an 8-month college year
32 enrolments: approximately J$1,920,000 during an 8-month college year
Illustrated average monthly earning potential: approximately J$180,000–J$240,000

These figures illustrate potential rather than a guaranteed monthly salary.

Do I have to enrol three or four learners every month?

No. Recruitment is seasonal. The main benchmark is the cumulative result across the full 8-month college year.

Approximately three to four successful enrolments per month is a planning average, not a mandatory monthly quota.

What is the expected target?

The expected benchmark is 24 successful undergraduate enrolments during one 8-month college year.

32 or more represents the higher performance benchmark.

Do enquiries and applications count as enrolments?

No. Leads, enquiries and applications are important pipeline stages, but enrolment-based income relates to eligible learners who successfully complete the applicable enrolment requirements.

Leadership

Recruitment Team Lead

How soon can I become a Recruitment Team Lead?

A recruiter may become eligible for consideration after completing one full 8-month college year of satisfactory sustained recruitment activity.

The recruiter would normally need at least 24 successful undergraduate enrolments, together with satisfactory learner retention, professional standards, training and demonstrated leadership readiness.

Does reaching 24 enrolments automatically make me a Team Lead?

No. Twenty-four enrolments establishes the minimum recruitment performance benchmark for consideration.

Appointment also depends on:

Leadership ability
Communication and presentation skills
Organisation and planning
Learner retention
Professional conduct
Ability to develop other recruiters
Required training and professional development
Organisational requirements
Management approval

Do Team Leads continue recruiting personally?

Yes. Team Lead responsibilities are added to the recruitment role.

Team Leads can continue earning applicable new-enrolment income from their own successful eligible learners while supporting an assigned team and managing their eligible learner portfolio.

Financial Growth

Continuing Base Pay

When does Continuing Base Pay begin?

Continuing Base Pay does not begin during a learner's first college year.

College Year 1 can generate the applicable approximately J$60,000 new-enrolment amount. Beginning in the learner's second college year, an eligible Team Lead may receive J$30,000 per eligible retained learner per 8-month college year.

What could Team Lead income look like in Years 2–5?

Using the expected benchmark of 24 new eligible learners per college year, with a three-college-year programme assumption and applicable retention:

College Year 2: J$1,440,000 new-enrolment income + J$720,000 Base Pay = J$2,160,000
College Year 3: J$1,440,000 new-enrolment income + J$1,440,000 Base Pay = J$2,880,000
College Years 4–5: approximately J$2,880,000 per college year under the same stable-portfolio assumptions

Any qualifying team-productivity income would be additional.

What could the 32-enrolment high-performance model look like?

Under the same assumptions:

College Year 2: approximately J$2,880,000
College Year 3 onward: approximately J$3,840,000 per college year

These illustrations combine personal new-enrolment income and Continuing Base Pay and exclude team-productivity income.

Leadership Income

Team Productivity

Can a Team Lead earn additional income from team productivity?

Potentially, yes. Depending on the approved remuneration arrangement, eligible Team Leads may qualify for additional income or incentives linked to approved performance outcomes generated by their assigned recruitment team.

How much is Team Lead team-productivity income?

A fixed amount is not included in the financial illustrations on this page. The applicable formula would be determined by the approved Team Lead remuneration arrangement.

This means the illustrated Year 2–5 figures exclude team-productivity income. Any qualifying team-related income would be additional.

Continuing Eligibility

Maintaining Team Lead Status

Can I lose Recruitment Team Lead status?

Yes. Team Lead status must be maintained through continuing satisfactory performance.

Personal recruitment goals
Assigned-team goals
Learner retention
Recruiter development
Professional development
Projects and assigned responsibilities
Records and reporting
Professional and ethical conduct

What happens to Base Pay if Team Lead status is lost?

Continuing Base Pay is linked to continuing Team Lead eligibility. If applicable Team Lead requirements are no longer maintained, eligibility for Continuing Base Pay may also end in accordance with the applicable remuneration arrangement.

Beyond the Role

Incentives & Career Progression

What other incentives may be available?

Depending on approved programmes and qualifying performance, opportunities may include:

Local or international travel opportunities
Airline-related benefits
Hotel or accommodation benefits
Individual performance recognition
Leadership incentives
Team-development recognition
Special campaign incentives

Where can this career lead?

Professional Student Recruiter
Senior Student Recruiter
Recruitment Team Lead
Recruitment & Outreach Coordinator
Recruitment Manager
Regional / International Recruitment Lead

Progression depends on performance, professionalism, leadership, learner retention, recruiter-development results, organisational requirements and available opportunities.

Earnings figures are illustrations of potential, not guaranteed income.

Actual new-enrolment income, Continuing Base Pay, team-productivity income, incentives and benefits depend on eligible completed enrolments, learner retention, applicable targets, continuing appointment status, organisational requirements and the formal remuneration arrangement applicable to the role.
