Coding school continues international expansion

Logiscool is the best choice to prepare your child for success in the digital future

How old are you?
“12.”

What are you doing right now?
“I’m just programming my 43rd computer game.”

Wow, isn’t that difficult to do?
“When I started the Logiscool courses, I had no idea how easy and fun coding can be!” These are the answers of David, who has been attending Logiscool coding courses for more than three years.

His mother, Eva, agrees that: “Logiscool is a friendly, innovative education centre where kids can learn a lot of things that will be essential for their adulthood.”

Important knowledge

These days, the media is full of articles about the digital future. It’s agreed that there will be more AI, more robots and the workplace of tomorrow will be full of jobs that don’t exist yet.

Dr Anita Breuer, co-founder and CEO of Logiscool, says: “Back in 2014 when Logiscool was launched, we were among the first to realise that very soon coding would be the most important knowledge of the future.

“Kids grow up with gadgets in their hands and they need to learn how computers think, they need to become the creators of technology, rather than being passive users. We help tens of thousands of kids and teens to be more successful in the digital future.”

Kids in Logiscool learn to code by building computer games. This hands-on education gives them skills they don’t get in regular schools. Besides mastering the main principles of computer coding, they also learn important skills such as logical, algorithmic thinking; problem solving; tolerance of failures; and understanding complex maths concepts.

Unique platform

Having been a first-mover in the industry, Logiscool became not only a global expert in coding education based on the huge and valuable experience it has, but the company also developed the best programming education platform available to date.

Gyula Csitari, co-founder and strategy director of Logiscool, says: “There are free coding education platforms out there. We used these in the beginning, but very soon realised their disadvantages, so we went on, actually rather far.

“We have developed a unique platform that is not meant for learning, but for teaching. A platform that is not too complex for younger ones and not boring for the older ones. Our platform is able to continuously adapt to the age and skill level of the children, so it maximises the level of satisfaction - our most important key performance indicator.”

Anita adds: “Children are always honest when they express their opinion, so for us it’s an absolute must that they come out from each and every lesson with a big smile. That’s why most of them come back year after year to our popular afterschool courses and vacation camps.”

Zsolt Vermes, a Logiscool franchise partner since 2015, says: “I had my career in a multinational company and I’ve never thought about having a business of my own.

“Then I met Logiscool and realised I can fully identify not only with their mission, but also with the whole concept and business model. This was definitively the best decision of my life.

“They offer just the right combination of what a franchisee needs for success: a best-in-the-world education platform, nearly 1,000 lessons of great curriculum and a proven methodology based on years of experience and outstanding support.”

Global interest

The global interest in the Logiscool franchise system is proof of its quality and it’s resulted in a fast-growing network: the brand is present in 15 countries on three continents, from Mexico to Europe, Taiwan and India.

The huge international experience of the Logiscool team is of great value for future master partners and very soon the 100th Logiscool unit will open in Belgium.

Michaela Sicoe, Logiscool master partner for Belgium, says: “Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, our unit is sky-rocketing with 250-plus students and due to our new service the Logiscool LIVE! online courses the churn rate in the past few months was negligible.

“In this period we have also found a franchise partner to open a new unit, which will be the 100th worldwide. I’m very satisfied - this really is a recession-proof business.” Michaela is not the only one who is proud of the Logiscool franchise.

Dana Banica, Logiscool master partner for Romania, says: “I took the Logiscool master licence in 2018 and now have almost 30 successful franchise partners in my network. Some of them are opening their second or even third units. By the end of 2020, there will be 50 Logiscool units in Romania.

“I’m extremely happy that my initial investment has fully returned much earlier than planned. Besides the unique education content and great support, I also get their own complex franchise management system from Logiscool HQ that makes operation easy and helps initiate a new partner in a very short time. I have the feeling that I receive more and more value each day.”

Iva Yankova, Logiscool master partner for Bulgaria, says: “We’ve been master partners since the summer of 2019 and we opened our school in September 2019, so we haven’t been part of the Logiscool family for very long, but it definitely feels like a family.

“We are very happy that we already have our first franchise partners on board in Bulgaria and will be opening schools at new locations this summer and during September, so plan to have at least five locations by the end of 2020. For everybody that is considering becoming a partner, I would say yes, do it!”

As Gyula Csitari summarised: “We are the global experts, with the longest experience, of coding education for kids and teens. We offer a great franchise business with real social impact. It’s the best investment for parents and franchise partners. And both parents and partners agree: we change lives!”
