Referral Program Terms and Conditions

Referral of a future EF Group Leader: You earn 300 points, a taxable cash bonus or one free spot on a Teacher Appreciation Weekend when your referral leads their first EF Educational Tour or EF Explore America Tour with at least six full-paying travelers within four years of the date you submitted the referral to EF. For 2020, your referral must travel with at least twelve full-paying travelers to qualify for the Teacher Appreciation Weekend. Only one bonus may be awarded per tour. If your referral is valid, you will be asked to select the bonus of your choosing. If you prefer the Teacher Appreciation Weekend or cash bonus, the 300 points will be deducted from your account. You may only qualify for one Teacher Appreciation Weekend per travel season and your referral must lead a qualifying tour in that same season.
