Since this is an educational business, we require that all franchisees have, at a minimum, a Bachelor's Degree from an accredited institution. In addition, I.E.S wants their franchisees to be energetic, financially able team players who really desire their own business and are willing to put in the hard work to make it successful. You bring your desire and we will teach you the business. You do not need to know the abacus before you contact us.
