Licensing & Partnership Options

Three Ways to Bring the Early Scholars Curriculum to Your Community

A decade of building a speech and debate program, 150+ tournament wins, and an Ivy League–developed curriculum — now available to license to partners across the country. Everything runs virtually. Here are your options, what they cost, and how we get you launched.

Pick the Model That Fits You

Every partner starts in a different place. Some want to get coaching right away from home with low risk, some want to build a team running their own program with our curriculum, and some already have their own brand and just need our proven curriculum behind it. All three run 100% virtually — no storefront, no real estate, no build-out. On our call we'll figure out which one is the right fit for your goals and your budget.

What Happens Next

No pressure and no obligation. This is a two-way conversation to make sure the partnership is right for both of us. Here's the path from our first call to launch.

1

Discovery Call

We talk through your goals, your market, and which of the three options fits best. You ask us anything — this is the call you're on right now.

2

Choose Your Option

You pick the tier that fits — Certified Coach, Licensed Partner, or Regional / White Label — and we confirm it's a mutual fit.

3

Review the Agreement

We put all the terms in writing so you know exactly what you're getting and what it costs. Take your time and review it with your own attorney or accountant if you'd like.

4

Get Set Up

Once you're in, we activate your access to the app, the full curriculum, and your materials — all online, same day where possible.

5

Training & Onboarding

You go through coach training with Dr. Jacques and the team so you're confident running the Early Scholars method from day one.

6

Launch & Recruit Students

You start coaching, using our marketing templates and ongoing support to bring in your own students and grow.

Let's Find the Right Fit

No pressure and no obligation. Tell us your goals and we'll help you choose the option that's right for you — and get you launched, all online.
