An operator will also provide Programs to customers at one or more sites that the operator locates and secures (each a "Third Party Site").
Although each Third Party Site must meet our standards and specifications, the operator is not required to build-out the space or to otherwise maintain a permanent presence at these sites.
Third Party Sites may include facilities, such as community centers and parks and recreation centers, where the operator rents a portion of the facility for specific schedule of days or time slots, or other facilities, such as afterschool care centers and schools, at which the operator conducts Programs on a scheduled basis as an independent service provider.
Unless otherwise indicated in this Agreement, "Authorized Location" will refer to Third Party Sites and EFK Center Locations.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Engineering For Kids Franchise Disclosure Document, a Third Party Site is a location where an Engineering For Kids operator provides programs to customers. The franchisee is responsible for finding and securing these sites, but does not need to build out the space or maintain a permanent presence there.
Third Party Sites can include facilities such as community centers, parks and recreation centers where the franchisee rents space for specific days or time slots. They can also include facilities like after-school care centers and schools, where the franchisee conducts programs on a scheduled basis as an independent service provider.
These Third Party Sites must meet Engineering For Kids' standards and specifications. Together with EFK Center Locations (the operator's permanent base of operations), Third Party Sites are referred to as "Authorized Locations" in the agreement, unless otherwise indicated.
