FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How is KI Academy different from other course platforms?
We are not a course platform. Courses end when the video ends; KI Academy measures your readiness, guides you through real mentors, and connects you to real opportunities. The end result is not a certificate — it is being ready to depart.
Is the assessment free?
Yes. The assessment and your Global Readiness Score are free. Fees apply only to the Global Foundation Program.
I don't know yet whether I want to study, win a scholarship, or work abroad. Can I join?
That is exactly what the assessment is for. It maps the most realistic pathway for you.
My English is still basic. Can I still join?
Absolutely. A low starting score is not a rejection — it is a starting point. The program is designed to raise your readiness step by step.
Does KI Academy place workers abroad directly?
No — and that matters legally. Migrant worker placement may only be carried out by licensed agencies (P3MI/LPK). KI Academy prepares you and lists openings from licensed placement partners on the KI Work job board — applying is free; placement itself is run by those licensed partners.
Why is the work track free? Who pays?
The model is flipped: employers and placement partners pay KI Academy for prepared candidates — candidates are never charged to get a job. As long as you have an active application, applying, gap analysis, e-learning modules, and a CV + 1 essay review are all free.
How do I know I'm not being scammed by a broker?
Every opening on KI Work comes from a licensed placement partner (P3MI/LPK) whose legality we verify. We never ask for money to get you hired. If anyone claiming to represent KI Academy asks for payment to “secure” a placement, it is a scam — report it via our official WhatsApp.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Partners only see an anonymous summary profile (candidate code, score, pathway) — and only with your consent. Contact details are shared only after your approval and admin verification.
How do I choose a destination country?
Start from the Destination Hub (/destinasi): every country has a full guide — legal schemes & indicative salaries for the work track, scholarships & costs for the study track, plus a preparation timeline. Compare first, then decide. You can also set target countries in your profile so jobs and recommendations adapt.
What are job categories on the job board?
Every job is tagged with a category (caregiver, manufacturing, construction, hospitality, agri-fishery, logistics) so you can filter by your skills. Each category has its own page listing typical countries, requirements, and live openings.
Can I get notified about new jobs or scholarships?
Yes, for free. Fill the "Notify me" form on any country guide or the job board — just your email (WhatsApp optional). When a new job opens in a country you care about, we'll send it over. Unsubscribe anytime via the link in each email.
How long until I can depart for work abroad?
It varies by country and scheme — typically 6–18 months from starting language study to placement (Japan SSW ± 8–14 months; Korea EPS can take longer due to test queues). Detailed timelines are in each country guide.
Are the testimonials on this site real?
Yes. We never display fake testimonials — every story comes from students who were actually hired or reached Ready status, submitted from their own dashboard and moderated before publishing. When there are none, the block stays empty.
How do I spot a placement scam?
Red flags: being asked for tens of millions of rupiah to "guarantee" acceptance, promised departure without training/language tests, or asked to hand over your passport. On official schemes, placement costs are borne by employers/licensed agencies — candidates never pay KI Academy. Report anything suspicious via our official WhatsApp.
What is my data used for?
Your profile and documents are used only to assess readiness and — with your consent when applying — shared with the relevant placement/campus partner. We never sell data. Full details are in the Privacy Policy.
