Partner Agreement

This agreement sets out the terms on which a training provider ("the Partner") supplies courses to the Shog Corporate Training catalogue and is paid a share of what those courses earn. It is accepted on the platform when the Partner submits its application, and it applies from the day the application is approved.

Who you are contracting with

Shog Corporate Training is operated by Shog Consulting (FZC), licence number SC242038101, registered at STRIP Block C VL07-017, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. In this agreement, "we" and "us" mean Shog Consulting (FZC). "You" means the legal entity named on the partner application.

Questions about this agreement go to training@shogconsulting.com.

Becoming a partner

You apply by completing the partner application on the platform, uploading the documents it asks for, and submitting it. We review the application and may approve it, ask for changes, or decline it. We are not obliged to approve any application and we do not have to give reasons for declining one.

The documents you upload must be genuine, current and yours. You must keep them current for as long as you are a partner: when a licence or an identity document expires, you upload the renewed one. We remind you before a document expires, and we may suspend the partnership while a required document is out of date.

Approval sets your revenue share. It is recorded on your partner profile and shown on your Partnership page. It applies to sales made after approval; it does not change what an earlier sale earned.

Being shown as a trainer

By becoming a partner you consent to our showing your organisation on the Trainers section of the platform's public pages: the legal name on your partner profile, the logo you upload to your account, your specialities, the description you wrote, and a link to your website. We choose which partners to show and when; approval does not oblige us to show you. You can ask us at any time to take you off the section and we will do so within ten working days. We never show your documents, your contact details or your revenue share.

What you supply

You write courses on the platform: the description, the modules, the videos and the assessment. You may only submit material that you wrote or hold the rights to publish, and you are responsible for its accuracy and for keeping it current with the rules it teaches.

Every course version goes through our review before it is published. We may ask for changes, decline a version, or take a published course off the catalogue. We do not edit your material ourselves; where something needs to change we tell you what and you change it. Once a course has been published its title, price, audience, language and web address are fixed; changes to those go through us.

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to publish, market, sell and deliver your courses on the platform, to store and transmit your material, and to show your name, logo and description alongside them, for as long as the course is listed and for as long afterwards as is needed to serve the learners already enrolled. You keep the copyright in what you wrote.

Certificates

Certificates for your courses are issued by Shog Consulting (FZC) as publisher, and they name you as the author of the course. They carry our stamp and our verification record. You may not issue, sign or stamp certificates for these courses yourself, and you may not represent our certificates as your own.

How you are paid

For each seat sold on one of your courses you earn your revenue share of the seat's price, net of VAT. The share is calculated when the customer's payment succeeds and is frozen on that sale, so a later change to your rate does not rewrite it.

Earnings are held for thirty days from the sale to cover refunds and card disputes. Earnings older than thirty days are settled in a monthly payout. Where the amount due is below AED 100 it is carried forward to the next month.

Payouts are made by bank transfer to the account you enter on the platform, or in cash by arrangement. You enter your banking details on the platform, where they are stored encrypted; we verify them before the first transfer. You are responsible for the accuracy of those details and for any charge your bank applies.

If a sale is refunded or reversed, the earning on it is reversed. If it had already been paid to you, the amount is deducted from your next payout. A purchase made by your own account, or on your own behalf, earns nothing.

You are responsible for your own taxes on what you are paid. If you are registered for VAT you invoice us for the payout, and your invoice must carry your tax registration number.

Conduct

You may not enrol people in your own courses in order to inflate sales or earnings, sit an assessment for somebody else, or share access to a learner's session. You may not use the platform to collect personal data of learners: attendee records belong to the customer that enrolled them, and you receive sales figures, not people.

You must comply with the Acceptable Use Policy and with the law that applies to you.

Suspension and ending the partnership

We may suspend the partnership if a required document is out of date, if a course is found to be inaccurate or not yours, if you breach this agreement, or if we are required to by law. While suspended, your courses are taken off the catalogue and you cannot submit new ones. Learners already enrolled finish their course, and their certificates are issued and remain valid.

Either of us may end the partnership with thirty days' written notice. Earnings accrued before the end are paid in the normal cycle. Certificates already issued stay valid and verifiable; the verification record is ours and is kept in line with our Data Retention policy.

Changes to this agreement

We may change this agreement. Changes that materially affect what you supply or how you are paid take effect thirty days after we notify you, and we may ask you to accept the new version on the platform. Continuing to supply courses after that date is acceptance of the change.

Governing law

This agreement is governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates as applied in the Emirate of Sharjah, and the courts of Sharjah have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from it.
