Sessions for ALL School Owner Levels!
With over 100 breakout sessions covering all topics, there’s a lot to take in! Since everyone is at a different place in their journey, we wanted to make it easy to find the content that will most apply to you and your team and have adopted a three-digit numbering system for most of this year’s content. First, you’ll see session broken down by 100, 200, 300, or 400-level courses. The first number indicates how advanced the topic will be, and roughly translates to:
100
0 - 100 students
100-level courses are foundational systems and concepts that are essential for growing your student body up to about 120 students. Whether you have a brand new location, are trying to make the move to full-time professional martial artist, or want to begin growing a team, you want to make sure these systems are in place.
200
100 to 200 students
200-level courses focus on intermediate systems that help you establish repeatable processes to grow past the 100 student mark and into the territory of 200+ students. These concepts are central to how we run our Kovars academies, and will help you grow and develop your team around you to serve a larger part of your community.
300
200 - 300 students
At the 300-level, the assumption is your school is already running fairly smooth and you have a team already in place to help you. Your school is successful, but you can still improve as you face new challenges with a growing team. Maybe you’re looking to open a second location, or you want to continue to grow your primary location well into the 300+ student range and beyond.
400
300+ students or Multi-Schools
Our 400-level courses are catering to well-established school owners with much larger teams, often spanning several locations or single locations at the “mega-school” level. These topics will focus on the challenges of running multiple locations, shaping large-scale teams, and other more advanced or nuanced topics that should be prioritized only after those of the earlier subjects.
