With STEM Certification, Customizable Territory, and Discounts for Veterans & Teachers, CompuChild Eyes Strong Franchisee Growth in Texas
DUBLIN, Calif., Dec. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The year 2022 was marked with some of the highest achievements in the more than 20-year history of the children's after-school education franchise, CompuChild. In 2022, this entrepreneurship and technology education franchise was named a "Top Franchise for 2022" by Franchise Business Review. This is the 13th time that CompuChild received this annual top franchisee satisfaction award, an honor unmatched by any other franchise listed within the 'child services' segment of Franchise Business Review. This was also the year when CompuChild's North Fulton franchisee Ms. Erin Ramlackhan was recognized as one of 2022's "Franchise Rock Stars" by Franchise Business Review for finding innovative ways to teach STEM and STEAM-related topics to children during COVID by using her expertise in photography and digital art. Ms. Ramlackhan was selected from over 30,000 franchisees, representing more than 300 brands that participated in Franchise Business Review's research. Last but not the least, after a stringent and lengthy evaluation process, CompuChild received the "STEM Provider Certification" from world-renowned, Cognia for its commitment to high-quality STEM education. This is a rare recognition among children's education franchises worldwide.
While CompuChild continues to make tremendous progress toward improving its quality of education and curricula, the franchise recognizes the significance of finding the right franchisees to materialize its mission of "nurturing ethical and entrepreneurial children through after-school enrichment." Veterans and teachers give a lot to our society through their services. Interestingly enough, key entrepreneurial skills such as problem-solving, teamwork, and discipline come naturally to veterans. CompuChild believes that veterans will make great franchise owners and to promote their participation, the franchise's Military Appreciation Program offers a 20% discount on the initial franchise fee to all honorably-discharged veterans/reservists and their spouses. The franchise also has the option to waive royalty fees should a franchisee be called up for Guard or Reserve duty. Similarly, the after-school education focus of the franchise makes it a great fit for teachers. In order to make itself the best franchise opportunity for teachers, CompuChild has made sure that none of the classes offered by the franchise during its after-school programs overlap with what teachers teach during regular school hours. In 2022, CompuChild rolled out a special discount that enables all practicing, former, and retired teachers to enjoy a 20% discount on the initial franchise fee towards the purchase of a franchise territory. To qualify for this discount, teachers should be able to present their teaching license or credential for having taught at any state-approved or accredited school in the United States or Canada for more than a year.
Talking about the growth strategy for the next year, the President of CompuChild stated, "We have a strong presence in Northern California where I started as a franchisee in 2014. Our flagship Tri-Valley franchise had a great Fall 2022 semester with more than 425 students enrolled in our after-school programs just within one franchise territory. We have a unique franchise offering, as we have merged technology education with entrepreneurship. Texas has had a long history of entrepreneurship and technology. Lately, we have received several inquiries from prospective franchisees looking to establish their CompuChild franchise territory in Texas. Due to the large size of the state and the variability in the population density, we have decided to offer quite a bit of customization to our prospective franchisees in deciding their territory. We believe our after-school programs will be extremely well received in Texas and hence, we are targeting Texas as our growth market for 2023."
