Reviews of our Clients

Imagine this scenario: you rent a space, complete the renovations, hire a full teaching staff, purchase furniture and equipment, and only then submit your documents for a license. Subsequently, the licensing authority reveals that the premises are entirely unsuitable for the educational program you planned.

Now you must either redo the renovations or search for a new location, while the teachers you have already hired and are paying wait for months until the school obtains the right to begin operations.

This is one of the most common and costly mistakes made by founders of private schools: attempting to have "everything 100% ready" before submitting documents because it feels safer. In reality, the law does not require this.
