My organisation is located in Canada, and is a registered Canadian business.

I am not a representative of a publicly funded post-secondary institution.

My organisation and I will not claim any payment from students or receive any portion of the student stipend.

I will not create multiple active accounts or participate using more than two companies, each of which must undergo ID verification.

Projects will begin February 10th, 2025 and end no later than March 7th, 2025.

Projects must be completed within the cohort’s 4-week period, with a minimum of 2 weeks.

Students will complete a total of 60 hours of work, with a maximum of 30 hours per week and no more than 10 hours per day.

All projects must be finished by the cohort’s end date, or students will be ineligible for payment.

There are no exceptions to these timelines.

Each company may participate in multiple projects.

As a condition of participation in a cohort, I understand that participants will be matched to my projects by Foresight.

I will clearly define the project scope and ensure it requires no more than 60 hours of work per participant.

No fees will be charged to students, including training or application licences.

I agree to be available for discussions with the AME-UP coordinator to confirm project appropriateness.

Participants must be accepted on the Riipen platform before starting a project. No retroactive recording of students or projects is allowed.

I will provide a minimum of 5 hours of mentorship per student, including regular check-ins.

Upon project completion, I will submit feedback confirming the student's work and hours. If the work is incomplete, I will notify Riipen by submitting a Dispute Resolution ticket through the Avocado support feature in the bottom right corner of the Riipen website.

Payment is only available to students registered on the Riipen platform under Advanced Manufacturing Engineers Upskilling Program (AME-UP) .

Students are considered workers of Riipen Networks Inc., with Riipen ensuring compliance with Ontario’s Work Safe requirements.

Foresight and Riipen reserve the right to determine student eligibility for payment. Only projects meeting all terms will qualify.

Conduct myself with respect and professionalism at all times. This includes refraining from harassment, discrimination, hate speech, and abusive behaviour.

Understand that any violation of this agreement may result in immediate removal, suspension, or termination without notice.

Accept that Riipen’s determination of disrespectful conduct is final and binding.

Be solely responsible for my behaviour while using this service.
