  • Not at all! You just need a heart for education. The courses give you everything you need to get started. In the Strategic Planning section, we spend time digging into your experience and strengths to help you identify gaps and head to long-term thriving.

  • Hybrid schools are designed to be more affordable than traditional private schools. As such, they appeal to a demographic that may not be able to afford private schooling. The course walks you through choosing a tuition and class and school size that will sustain itself and where founders and teachers will find rewarding part-time incomes (or full-time if creating duplicate programs!)as staff.

  • The courses are meant to be affordable. I remember what it was like to be starting out with very little capital! The strategic planning course is $199 and the implementation course is $249 Other costs likely to be incurred before tuition is collected will be a website, state filing, a sampling of books, and possibly a CPA or lawyer fee. All costs are reimbursable as business expenses, once revenue is collected.

  • Yes! If you are just exploring, you can check out the Resources page for the Free ideas sheet. Start with the Strategic Planning section. If you are already running a hybrid nonprofit, and need Board training resources, you can also just purchase the Board Training course. I’m also available for consulting! Just send me an email.

  • Legally, in most states the answer is yes. Hybrid schools are drop-off programs funded by tuition, but only meet part-time. Parents are integral partners in teaching.
