      The difficult part is the mechanics of income verification and regulatory framework of income share agreements. Other stuff is solvable.

          You could tie up with large employers for that. (Bit funny that, it would be reverse outsourcing for the US in an industry that is key in outsourcing)

          Ya but then you restrict where students can work, have to please all parties every time. Difficult coordination. I may have a solution actually, just thought of it.

          I’ll help you figure out the regulaatory framework for ISAs as well as income verification mechanism on a pro-bono basis. Let me know how I should get in touch with you?

          Explored talking to someone at @Upwork? Bump their value by Lambda School and get them hired on our platform - income is transparent. Everyone wins, no?

          This works for any remote employee and not only India. We have tons of enterprise customers looking for long term, meaningful hires including Upwork itself.

          Can’t give a precise number, varies from location and level. Enterprise customers pay high rates (hourly) to freelancers because they mostly care about quality over cost. FL rates is public data, you can search by location on Upwork. Can chat more in person.

          The interesting part would be the international hiring network/learnings. Long run: you could even prefinance and handle workvisas for the company.

          Hi Austen, A longshot idea to set up a base and framework for Lambda school in India. 1) Collaboration with top engineering colleges for skill set building. 2) Students will see value of Lambda school and the word will spread. 3) Introduce your model once the word is spread.

          Plus, Universities will be very open to the idea of extra training for students, since Lambda school provides first hand experience with skills required for a full time job. Plausible Win-win situation.

          Of course market hiring and economic scenarios maybe different, but in collaboration with universities, where companies do come to recruit students, the process of repaying to Lambda school will be transparent as well since you are involved with the university.

          Income share agreements can be disigned on the lines of loan agreements ? i.e. You are giving skills as loan to be repaid in future in the form of money when employed.
