Referral programme

Know someone who belongs at Nexa?

If you already tell people about Nexa, this makes it count. You get a referral link, you can see how far the people you refer get, and you earn when one of them enrols.

You will need to sign in first — the same account you would use for an application. If you do not have one, you can sign in with Google.

How it works

  1. Tell us who you are

    A short form — a student, a graduate, a creator, a school, a partner organisation. Nexa reviews every application.

  2. Get your code and link

    A code people can type on the application form, and a link you can share or print as a QR code. Both are yours permanently.

  3. Watch how they get on

    Your dashboard shows each person you referred and what stage they have reached, so you know when a nudge would help.

  4. Earn when they enrol

    A referral becomes payable once the student enrols and their payment clears. Your rate is shown on every entry.

Who can refer

You do not need to have studied at Nexa.

  • Current Nexa students
  • Graduates and alumni
  • Content creators and community organisers
  • Career advisors and consultants
  • Schools, colleges and training centres
  • Employers and partner organisations

The rules, plainly

Refer honestly

Please don't promise anyone a job, a qualification or a partnership on Nexa's behalf. We give you approved wording you can put in your own voice.

Respect the person you referred

You can follow up a limited number of times, and not at all if they have asked not to be contacted. You see their first name, their programme and their progress — never their documents, their ID or their payments.

You cannot refer yourself

Applying with your own referral code does not earn a commission.

Credit goes to one person

If someone enters a referral code, that is who gets credited. Otherwise it is whoever's link they used most recently. Once an application is credited it does not move.
