How are transfer fees for Best In Class Education Center franchises determined in Washington?

The 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document for Best In Class Education Center does not explicitly state how transfer fees are determined for franchises in Washington. However, it does mention transfer conditions for Satellite Offices. Specifically, a franchisee may not transfer their Satellite Office except in connection with an approved transfer of their main Best In Class Education Center.

Item 23 includes information about an Assurance of Discontinuance (AOD) that Best In Class Education Center's predecessor entered into with the Washington Attorney General's office. This AOD relates to "no-poach" language in franchise agreements, restricting franchisees from hiring employees from other franchisees or corporate locations. While this is relevant to franchise operations in Washington, it does not address transfer fees.

Prospective franchisees in Washington should ask Best In Class Education Center for clarification on how transfer fees are calculated for both standard franchises and in relation to Satellite Offices. Understanding the specific costs and conditions for transferring a franchise is crucial for financial planning and future business decisions.
