Training 

Eye Level Learning Centers provides comprehensive training and ongoing support to its franchisees, ensuring they are well-prepared to operate their centers effectively. The training program includes:

  • Initial Start-Up Training Program: This program covers essential aspects of running a learning center, such as curriculum delivery, center management, student assessment practices, parent consultation training, and effective marketing strategies.
  • Eye Level University (ELU): ELU is a learning platform developed for all Eye Level family members who wish to further learn about the product, share best practices, gain teaching tips, and access various marketing tools.
  • Ongoing Support: After the initial training, franchisees receive continuous support, including follow-up training sessions, opening day assistance, marketing support with promotional tools and materials, continued training on new programs and updates, field consultant support, and quality assurance reviews.

Territory Protection

Eye Level Learning franchise does not offer exclusive territory protection to its franchisees. This means that franchisees may face competition from other Eye Level centers within their region, including those owned by the franchisor or other franchisees.

The parents of students enrolled at Eye Level Learning Centers have the flexibility to choose any location, regardless of territorial boundaries, potentially leading to overlapping service areas among franchisees​.

While this lack of exclusive territory might seem challenging, it allows for greater market penetration and ensures that the franchise can grow more freely in high-demand areas.
