JEI Learning Center: Innovating Personalized Education for Lifelong Success

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.

Education

Training 

JEI Learning Center provides comprehensive training for new franchisees to ensure they are well-prepared to operate their centers effectively.

  1. On-the-Job Training: JEI Learning Center provides 27 hours of on-the-job training. This practical experience is designed to help new franchisees understand the day-to-day operations of running a learning center, ensuring they are well-prepared to manage their location effectively.
  2. Classroom Training: Franchisees also undergo 25.5 hours of classroom training. This training covers essential topics such as the JEI Self-Learning Method®, customer service techniques, marketing strategies, and the use of proprietary diagnostic tools and student management software.
  3. Ongoing Support: Beyond initial training, JEI Learning Center offers continuous professional development opportunities and administrative support. This ongoing support helps franchisees maintain high educational standards and improve the quality of service provided to students.

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.
