Compare These Top Vendors for Education and Training Franchise Opportunities

Education and training franchise opportunities for beginners abound. Many new entrepreneurs think working with a franchise increases their chances of success; while this is true, franchise businesses still have a 20% failure rate. Therefore, as a beginner, it is especially important that you make sure the franchise shows you what typical earnings are like. Make sure it's also easy to withdraw from the franchise, and try to obtain information about how many franchises have disbanded within the past two years.
Next, consider the cost of buying into the franchise and what your ongoing expenses will be (including the cost of continuing to use the franchise name and the cost of buying any required products or materials). Franchise training should also be thorough, and ongoing support is essential. Finally, choose an education franchise you're passionate about. Experts say passion is the true key to making any business successful. Among the many educational franchise opportunities out there, consider those in the following categories:
1. Education training franchise for math or science
2. Foreign language education franchise
3. Education franchise opportunities for the arts

Select science and math educational franchises

Some reports say American children scored higher in math and science in 2008 than in years past, yet the United States is still not a leader in these important subjects. This makes franchise opportunities in math and science particularly appealing to many parents.

Look for language educational franchises

According to a 2007 U.S.A. Today story, more American children are learning foreign languages than ever before. Spanish tops the list, but European languages follow closely behind. Of course, to properly run a foreign language franchise, you need an intermediate or expert grasp of the language you'll be teaching.

Consider arts educational franchises

As the arts are covered less and less in American schools, parents are turning to after-school education franchises to fill in the gaps. Arts franchises cover topics such as music, dance, drama, painting, sculpting, and even culinary classes. Choose a topic you have some experience in, then let your contagious enthusiasm for the topic enrich children's lives.
