Kumon provides initial training through its Instructor Development Program, which is designed to equip franchisees with the skills and knowledge needed to operate a center. This program includes in-center training at designated Kumon Centers, online modules, homework assignments, and curriculum study.
The first semester must be successfully completed to be eligible for a franchise, while the second semester is required for ongoing operations.
Franchisees may also be required to attend supplemental and repeat training sessions. These sessions focus on upgrading instructional, business, or center management skills to ensure franchisees stay effective and competitive. Kumon retains the right to modify or add new training sessions based on business needs.
In addition to formal training, Kumon offers informal support such as consultations through branch office meetings, phone calls, video conferences, or on-site visits. These efforts aim to provide continuous guidance and assistance tailored to the needs of each franchisee.
Kumon does not provide guaranteed territory protection to its franchisees. While franchisees may be assigned a designated area, the franchisor retains the right to operate within that territory.
This includes the possibility of competition from Kumon itself or other Kumon franchisees, depending on the terms outlined in the franchise agreement. The franchise agreement emphasizes that franchisees should thoroughly understand their rights and limitations regarding territorial exclusivity.
Potential franchisees are encouraged to review specific provisions in the agreement and consult legal or professional advisors to fully comprehend the implications of competition within their designated area. This ensures that franchisees are aware of potential overlaps in market operations.
