Training

STEM Builders Learning Center provides structured training to equip franchisees with the necessary knowledge and skills to run their educational business effectively. The training is part of the initial franchise setup and covers both administrative and program-specific operations. The training programs include:

1. Initial Training for Franchisees
   This program is included in the franchise fee and covers comprehensive instruction for up to three people. While the training itself is free, franchisees are responsible for their own travel, lodging, meals, and employee wages. It ensures participants are prepared to operate within the standards of the STEM Builders brand.
2. Program-Specific Setup Training
   Franchisees are trained to manage and execute two STEM programs simultaneously. This includes instruction on handling robots, science projects, and the required technology like computers and tablets. The training supports effective delivery of the curriculum across various age groups.
3. Operational and Software Training
   Part of the preparation involves access to and training on the STEM Builders Portal and related business software. This enables franchisees to handle administrative tasks, customer management, and lesson scheduling with efficiency. This training ensures operational consistency and brand compliance.

Territory Protection

STEM Builders Learning Center does not offer exclusive territory protection to its franchisees. Although franchisees are assigned a defined territory, the franchisor retains the right to operate or license other units outside of this territory, including via alternative channels such as online platforms.

The franchise agreement does not guarantee that other units will not compete nearby or that the franchisee will be the only one servicing their geographic area.

Moreover, while franchisees are expected to perform their own local marketing within their territory, there is no commitment from the franchisor to restrict system-wide advertising or brand development activities based on geographic exclusivity.
