Home  /  For Partners & Sub-Agents

Partner with a consultancy that documents everything.

Institutions, sub-agents and host organisations — here is exactly what we expect, and what you can expect from us.

Who we work with

Three kinds of partnership

🏛️

Educational institutions

Universities, colleges, TVET institutions and registered training providers seeking well-screened student referrals from Malaysia and the wider Asian region.

What you get: applicants pre-screened against your actual entry criteria and genuine study intent, complete documentation, and a single accountable contact.

🤝

Strategic partners & representatives

Consultants, representatives and training organisations who want access to our institutional network and Australian WBL pathways under a documented agreement.

What we require: annual acknowledgement of our Compliance Code and adherence to every obligation listed on this page.

🛠️

Industry partners

Employers and businesses seeking recruitment support and pathway development, and Australian hosts able to offer genuine, supervised, qualification-relevant work-based learning placements.

What we require: a legitimate registered business, a named supervisor, and agreement to written placement terms.

Why partner with us

We are the low-risk option

Institutions carry the regulatory consequences of an agent’s behaviour. A referral partner who over-promises, submits weak applications or pushes students who never intended to study creates refusals, withdrawals and compliance exposure that lands on you, not them.

Our proposition is straightforward: we would rather refer fewer students who are genuine than more who are not.

  • Screened referrals. Applicants assessed against your real entry criteria and genuine study intent before submission.
  • Complete documentation. Genuine documents, checked for completeness and internal consistency.
  • A published code. Public standards, acknowledged annually by every representative, that you can audit us against.
  • Written commercial terms. All commission arrangements documented and recorded in official accounts. No secret commissions in either direction.

Non-negotiable

Sub-agent obligations

Every sub-agent and appointed representative of AM EDU Resources is bound by our Corporate Compliance & Business Ethics Code. These eight obligations are the condensed version — the full Code governs, and it applies in every market regardless of local practice.

01

Represent programs accurately

Provide accurate, current and truthful information on courses, entry requirements, fees, facilities and living costs. Never embellish, never guess at a figure.

02

Screen for genuine intent

Conduct preliminary screening against both academic criteria and genuine student intent before submitting any application.

03

Never guarantee outcomes

No guarantee of admission, visa issuance, post-study work rights or permanent residency — in any medium, including messaging apps and social media.

04

Refuse unofficial payments

Never request, offer, accept or give bribes, kickbacks or secret commissions to institution officials, visa officers or other recruiters.

05

Disclose all fees in writing

Every fee and charge documented in writing to the student before engagement, and accurately recorded in official accounts.

06

Protect student data

Collect only with explicit written consent, store securely, restrict access, and comply with the PDPA 2010 and the Australian Privacy Principles.

07

Escalate concerns immediately

Report suspected violations, fraudulent activity or illegal practice to Management. Reporting is a requirement, not an option.

08

Acknowledge the Code annually

Read, acknowledge and comply with the Code every year. Acknowledgement is a mandatory condition of representation.

⛔ Grounds for immediate termination

Guaranteeing visa or migration outcomes; assisting with fraudulent documentation or falsified financial statements; requesting or accepting any unofficial payment; concealing fees from students; or misusing student personal data. Violations lead to disciplinary proceedings up to and including immediate termination of contract and legal referral where applicable.

Getting started

How partner onboarding works

We do due diligence in both directions. Expect us to ask questions, and expect to be able to ask ours.

01

Initial enquiry

Tell us who you are, which markets or programs you cover, and what you’re looking for.

02

Due diligence

Mutual verification: business registration, track record, references, and regulatory standing.

03

Code acknowledgement

Review and formally acknowledge our Compliance Code, including all sub-agent obligations.

04

Written agreement

Scope, territories, programs, commission terms and data handling — all documented in writing.

05

Briefing & activation

Program briefing, approved materials, contacts and process, then you’re live — with annual review.

Commercial terms

Commission and fee transparency

All consultancy fees, service charges and institutional commission arrangements are documented in writing and accurately recorded in our official financial accounts. That applies to money coming in and money going out.

We do not pay secret commissions and we do not accept them. We will not enter an arrangement that requires an undisclosed payment to any individual, and we will not participate in one that asks a student to pay a charge that isn’t on their written fee schedule.

If a proposed arrangement can’t be documented and recorded openly, that is our answer on it.

✓ How we structure arrangements

  • Written agreement before any referral or placement activity
  • Commission basis, rate and payment timing stated explicitly
  • All amounts recorded in official financial accounts
  • Student-facing fees disclosed to students in writing
  • Data handling terms compliant with PDPA and the APPs
  • Annual review, and termination rights for Code breaches

⛔ Arrangements we decline

  • Any undisclosed payment to an individual officer or official
  • Commissions contingent on visa or migration outcomes
  • Charges to students that are not on their written fee schedule
  • Volume targets that would compromise genuine student screening

Enquire

Start a partnership conversation

Tell us about your organisation and what you’re looking for. We’ll respond within two working days and, if there’s a fit, set out the due diligence and documentation the next step requires.

Institutions wanting detail on our compliance framework, screening methodology or due diligence processes before committing to anything are welcome to ask — we’d rather you did.

Authorisation and consent

Due diligence

Read the Code before you sign anything

Our full compliance framework is public — including everything we require of our own representatives.
