Company Bio

The International Canadian Academy is a bilingual education franchise based on Canadian best practices and developed in partnership with the Richmond School District, which manages approximately 50 schools in British Columbia, Canada. 

Canadian students are always among the highest achievers in international testing. For decades, Canada has been the highest-ranked country of all English-speaking countries, especially for the OECD’s PISA. 

The educational franchise offers a complete solution for schools looking to provide an education that empowers their students to thrive in all aspects of their lives by focusing on core competencies. The International Canadian Academy also includes the state-of-art programs from Digital Media Academy, one of the best STEAM (science, technology, education, arts, and math) course providers in Silicon Valley, U.S.A.  

At the International Canadian Academy, franchisees are never alone: they’ll have full access to TeacherWit, a global learning community where educators from around the world can connect and share ideas, questions, resources, and best practices with fellow franchisees.

Franchise partners will be able to invest in their country’s education market, meeting all legal requirements, helping future generations, and establishing a thriving and lasting franchise business. 

How does the International Canadian Academy franchise model work?

The International Canadian Academy education program serves students from pre-kindergarten through high school, in a bilingual setting that follows the most effective Canadian and international practices. It offers a complete program that fosters core competencies, skills, and knowledge of students as young as one and a half and until they graduate to pursue their learning in higher education. 

Moreover, International Canadian Academy has a partnership with Digital Media Academy, a recognized provider of quality STEAM programs for the digital education of its students. International Canadian Academy also provides the master franchisee with relevant curriculum resources, school forms and templates, and professional learning materials to be used with their franchise owners. 

The master franchisee is responsible for establishing a model for developing the International Canadian Academy program in new schools or converting existing ones within their territory. It will also provide full support to schools adopting the International Canadian Academy program, including the brand’s quality assurance to ensure its high standards are met at each school. 

What kind of franchisee is International Canadian Academy looking for?

Can education change the world? International Canadian Academy is looking for franchisees who answer ‘yes’ to that question.

International Canadian Academy looks for new entrepreneurs, first-time franchisees, or strongly established educational groups to implement new schools or convert existing ones.  

No education experience or knowledge is required to be an International Canadian Academy franchisee. The brand is looking for a prospective franchisee who is committed to quality education and changing the lives of children, has a good knowledge of the local market and long-term vision, managerial capability, and financial resources. 

The master franchisee shall focus its efforts on building relationships with its partners who will deliver the International Canadian Academy program to students, ensuring the education brand’s high-quality standards. Thus, interpersonal relationships and sales skills are essential, as is the ability to maintain the required standard in the operation. 

What kind of training and support does International Canadian Academy offer its franchisees?

As an education company, training is a central part of the culture. International Canadian Academy understands that only qualified teams will lead to excellence in the delivery of its academic program. 

Qualified prospective master franchisees are invited to experience first-hand what makes Canadian education a global benchmark, visiting schools in its partner Richmond School District in Canada. 

The ICA training program includes in-person sessions both in Canada and in the master franchise territory, online training (both asynchronous and synchronous) opportunities, channels of communication with private groups on TeacherWit, manuals, and much more. 

As responsible for prospecting local partners and later training and evaluating them, the master franchisee has a wide range of topics available for its training. 

Initial training comprises immersion in the International Canadian Academy culture, mapping opportunities, and business strategies to develop your local network. 

The master franchisee must be ready to train and support the ongoing operation of International Canadian Academy schools on operational, pedagogical, and professional development issues. 

Count on International Canadian Academy’s platform with comprehensive materials, plus the support of its dedicated team from day one, to help you run a successful franchise operation.

Why should entrepreneurs go with International Canadian Academy?

Education is undergoing a global transformation, leaving behind 19th-century models for the challenges of this millennium. 

Parents and guardians have already realized that the traditional school in which they studied will not lead their children to future success with the challenges that present themselves in the world today. 

All around the globe, experts, international institutions like the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development), and educators are urging schools – from elementary schools upwards – to adapt to the changing reality of the world by focusing on core competencies, conceptual understanding, and digital skills. 

The stable and growing quality education market recognizes and rewards schools and learning centers that empower their learners for the future. 

What regions and territories is International Canadian Academy targeting?

International Canadian Academy has master franchise opportunities and availability for Southeast Asia, Middle East, and Eastern Europe. Other regions can be considered on request – reach out today to find out more about opening your own franchise location and capitalize on this exciting business opportunity.

Terms and conditions

Education requires investments and long-term results. The global education brand prioritizes partners with this mindset and compatible financial structure.  

In addition, education in many countries is highly regulated, and it will be the responsibility of the master franchisee and business owners to comply with local legislation for the implementation of the International Canadian Academy program. 

How much does an International Canadian Academy master franchise cost?

At this time, International Canadian Academy is looking for master franchisees to operate in one or more countries. The amount of the initial master franchise fee is defined for each region. 

In addition, the master franchise implementation plan will be discussed with the potential franchisee and will be part of the master franchise agreement, which may directly impact the value of the initial fee.
