As the national economy continues its worst slump in decades, more and more Americans are looking for ways to supplement their monthly incomes and bolster their households’ bottom line. Student Match Network, a company that utilizes a network of specialists to match prospective students to schools, is poised to offer a solution that can contribute to people’s bank accounts without robbing them of too much of their extra time.
Education Specialists for the company locate people interested in going back to college, to either improve their career path or switch careers altogether, and connects them with schools that have the appropriate programs to fulfill those needs. After learning what the prospective student’s goals and ambitions are, the specialist suggests a degree program at one of the company’s affiliated colleges and sends the person a link to an online application. From that point, the prospective student is interviewed by a representative from the actual institution and walked through enrollment.
In addition to finding the right degree programs, specialists can aid prospective students in eliminating the issues that typically prevent them from picking up the books again, such as money and time. Many of the schools that work with Student Match Network offer online classes that can be arranged around an adult’s busy lifestyle. Also, all of the schools have financial advisors that can either arrange for government grants and scholarships, or arrange for a student loan that fits within the student’s budget.
Becoming an Education Specialist does not require a full time commitment, although spending additional time will increase his or her earnings. The system is designed so that passive specialists, people who mainly want to operate within their personal network of colleagues and friends can still earn several hundred dollars a month. The only requirement is that they refer at least ten people every month with ten percent of those people enrolling in a degree program. Earnings are based on the actual enrollment rate, not the referral rate.
