Why FasTracKids?
One of the reasons for buying a franchise system is so that you don’t have to create everything yourself. When you own a FasTracKids early education franchise, you receive training and support in multiple areas:
World-renowned Curriculum
The FasTracKids programs have been designed to support a brain-based learning process for children and to offer flexibility and variety in your Enrichment Center or school. Supported by independent research, FasTracKids programs effectively achieve key learning results. Franchisees offer FasTracKids programs in morning, afternoon, after-school, weekend and vacation hours.
Program Instruction Training
Instructors attend a one-week instructor training program on the methodology of conducting FasTracKids programs. Additional materials such as lesson plans, handouts, and DVDs further support the training process. Additional training occurs on-line, regionally and at international meetings.
Center Operations
Franchisees attend a one-week operations training program that covers what is required to operate FasTracKids within an independent retail Center or as part of an existing pre-school or day care center. Additional training occurs on-line, regionally and at international meetings.
Site Selection Assistance
FasTracKids has undertaken an extensive review of the characteristics and demographics of successful locations and provides the information it has learned to its franchisees. In the United States, franchisees are assisted in identifying a location and with the subsequent real estate negotiations by Javelin Solutions, LLC.
 Marketing, Sales and Retention
Over the years, FasTracKids and its franchisees have refined effective methods for marketing the business, generating enrollments and retaining parents. Franchisees are provided with brochures, advertisements and other marketing materials for the business and the programs.
Franchisee Website and Technology
Technical support begins with consultation on the necessary equipment to outfit a FasTracKids Enrichment Center and continues with services such as registration, localization, and web support. The FasTracKids Franchisee support site provides operational support and marketing materials as well as notifications of upcoming meetings and training dates. Franchisees receive their own webpage to communicate class schedules, contact information and promotions.
Center Design
FasTracKids provides plans for optional layouts of classrooms and Enrichment Centers along with sign packages and color design schemes. These are based upon what has proven successful in franchisee locations around the world.
Franchise Support
Your individual Franchise Support manager works closely with you as you prepare to open your Enrichment Center and during the day-to-day operations of your franchise. FasTracKids has an extensive Operations Manual based upon the best practices of its franchisees and checklists to help you remember the activities that you should be executing every day, every month, every year.
