JEI Learning Center franchise is a well-established educational organization that originated in South Korea in 1977. It was founded with the mission of providing children with a solid educational foundation through a unique learning methodology known as the JEI Self-Learning Method®.

This method emphasizes a personalized approach to education, allowing students to progress at their own pace and master each concept before moving on to the next.

In 1992, the JEI Learning Center expanded its reach by starting to franchise in North America, where it quickly gained recognition for its innovative approach to supplementary education. The franchise headquarters is located in Los Angeles, California, where it continues to guide the development of its centers across the United States and other countries.

JEI Learning Centers offer a variety of programs focused on math and English for children from pre-kindergarten to 9th grade. The franchise differentiates itself through its proprietary diagnostic system, which helps to tailor each child's learning path according to their specific needs and abilities.

Territory Protection

JEI Learning Center offers territory protection to its franchisees, which is an essential benefit for ensuring that each franchise location has the opportunity to thrive without the risk of nearby competition from other JEI centers. 

This protection is typically based on population density and geographical distance, meaning that the franchisees are granted exclusive rights to operate within a specified area, preventing the establishment of another JEI Learning Center within that protected zone. 

This policy helps franchisees build a loyal customer base and grow their business without overlapping with other franchisees' territories.
