This information is not intended as an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy a franchise. We offer franchises solely by means of our Franchise Disclosure Document. The United States Federal Trade Commission and certain states have laws governing the offer and sale of franchises. We will not offer you a franchise unless and until we have complied with all applicable legal requirements in your jurisdiction.

STEP #2 – Pre-qualify by Completing Our Application

Our Franchise Development Department will review your completed application, then your Franchise Recruiter will set up an initial phone interview.

STEP #3 – Interview with Our General Manager

Your Franchise Recruiter will schedule this in-depth interview for you.

To confirm that you’ll be able to meet the financial obligations for the initial investment and the start-up costs for your Kumon Franchise, we’ll also conduct a financial assessment. There is also an FBI fingerprint check required in order to attend the Kumon training program.

STEP #5 – Sign Your Franchise Agreement

Once you have completed the entire Kumon Training program and your selected Center location has been approved, you will sign your Franchise Agreement and pay the remaining $1,000 of the Franchise Fee.

STEP #4 – Attend Our Instructor Development Program

You'll receive hands-on support and guidance to help you set up and run your Kumon Center successfully. You'll learn about the Kumon Curriculum, lesson plans and business and Center management strategies. You’ll also begin exploring possible retail locations and leases for your Center space!

There will be two 4-day sessions of training, held over a two-month period. You’ll also participate in a series of center visits for more hands-on training.
