YOU CAN EARN WHILE YOU LEARN:
We put you and your products on a database if you participate in product and graphic designs (on products) You help the artisan with the first production and whalla! The production starts!

Once the products are manufactured, it gets packaged, labelled and distributed. We go all the way and try every possible way to get your product sold. For every product sold, you get money paid a small royalty. Its not much if only one sells, but this small royalty gets bigger and bigger the more volumes of your product sells. And additionally, you added value to the lives of poor people.

So why not scan your design before you hand it in for assignment, or take photos of your craft, décor or furniture piece before you hand it in with steps and come and teach the crafters to make it. You have to make so many products for your school, university or learning institution! …Isn’t it crazy how many hours you have to put into your creations- and then submit it to probably never see the hard work again.. except for the marks you get for it!

And you are wondering who pays for the raw materials for the manufacturing of the products? We know you are students who cannot afford to put in this start up capital and likewise the community artisans cannot afford it? It’s again Amajobjob. We raise funds and have an ongoing drive to collect every glue and paint and material we can find. If you want to donate please do (click here).

What Amajobjob does, is to inform & select the design topics, turn the design into products with product developers, pass the manufacturing job opportunities to survivalist community groups who are within Amajobjob scholarship programmes or (called: Amajobjob implementers) and then seek markets for products. Amajobjob keeps a database of such learner designers who receive a standard “royalty amount” on every Amajobjob product that sells. The selling part is still the challenge, but not if learners can also get involved in the marketing activities as part of their learning process. The relationship between higher educational institutions and Amajobjob has the potential to breed more motivated learners and for educational Institutions to succeed in their experiential learning objective (outcomes based learning).
