Franchise Interviews Meets with Roberto Ortega, the CEO of KLA Schools
We are meeting with Roberto Ortega, CEO and co-founder
of KLA Schools. KLA Schools is an upscale preschool catering to children three months
of age up to age six. KLA Schools offers innovative early child care facilities along with a distinctive
approach to early childhood education. The KLA Schools model is inspired by progressive educational philosophies
including the Reggio Emilia Approach.
KLA is building a world-class franchise organization that sets new standards for excellence within
the children's educational services industry. Heavy dependence upon the Reggio Emilia Approach provides KLA
with a different method than what has become the standard in American daycare and preschool franchises. Many parents who are
seeking the best for their children are drawn to KLA's new system and the inspirational design of the schools.
While childcare and preschool centers often lay claim to having a superior education program or curriculum, few back up this
claim with a concrete, verifiable explanation.
Some of the areas we will
discuss on the show are the history of the organization, a typical day as a franchisee, and the training provided to franchisees.
We will also dive into the role technology plays in the organization, the industry and what types of individuals make good
franchisees for the business.
