Uri the Perl head-hunter (Score:2)
Basically, in exchange for providing a week of training, you're going to take the substantial recruiter fees for placing any of these thirty students over the next six months. It's not that I disagree with that, but you could tell the truth up front rather than hiding it behind "supporting that Perl community and Damian Conway".
Also, I wouldn't value a week of Damian's classes at $3000. I know what his prices, and it's not $90,000 per week. You're fibbing a bit there to make the students think they are getting more than they are. Basically, they get a free week of class, but have to pay for their own travel expenses so you can get a big recruiters fee by placing them in a job. It doesn't sound to me like they get such a good deal. But then, that's what recruiters do.
