How to save money?

Have you been wondering how to reduce the cost of languagel courses without having to radically reduce or eliminate them? We have prepared three scenarios, including a calculator to compare the current and reduced costs.

CALCULATOR for comparing the current and reduced costs (FIXED contribution and PENALISATION contribution

SCENARIO n. 1: Students contribute to their language courses 

If students contribute to their language courses financially, they are more engaged and committed.  There are different kinds of students' contributions: 

• PROPORTIONATE: defined by a specific percentage of the real cost 

• FIXED: a fixed amount paid for each lesson / time period (e.g. month, quarter) 

• REFUNDABLE: the cost of the language course will be reimbursed (fully or partially) after meeting pre-defined conditions (e.g. passing a language exam) 

• PENALISATION: student pays the cost of the language course (fully or partially) if they do not meet the conditions (e.g. attendance, language progress)

All you have to do is sign a Payroll Deduction Agreement with the employee and, in cooperation with the Finance Department, deduct the amounts on a regular basis.

SCENARIO n. 2: Students learn languages within the benefit program

• JCL language courses can be reimbursed through an invoice or through the benefit program.

• We recommend that students consider whether language lessons are a need or a reward. 

• Students who do not need language lessons and these are hencce a perk can pay for their lessons themselves.
