Yes, this is legit work, you will be considered an independent contractor and will receive a 1099 form for tax filing purposes. As a contractor you have the opportunity to service as many clients as you'd like within the platform. However, we don't recommend contracting more than two clients at a time.
You have the flexibility of selecting your own schedule. Each client has a minimum hour requirement (usually between 15-20 a week). Full time hours are available for many clients.
There is no expense for certification courses; however, there is a refundable $20.00 Course Confirmation deposit. In addition, there is a $30.00 background check fee, which is valid for 36 months, with the possibly of drug screen fees (usually paid by the client IF required). As a contractor, you are not a direct employee of the client that you will be servicing; therefore, you will be investing in your home office equipment (usually subject to a tax advantage as a contractor/certification completion incentive offered).
Depending upon the client that you choose to service, you may be entitled to an "earn as you learn" benefit. Military and student discounts are available. Once certified and servicing, you will be paid via direct deposit twice a month for revenue earned. You will also have continued support and access to resources after certification.
