The International Franchise Association's Franchise Ascension Initiative (FAI) is now accepting applications for the 2025 cohort.
The six-month accelerator program aims to support individuals from underrepresented groups, U.S. veterans, and economically disadvantaged communities in launching a career in franchise ownership.
The FAI offers immersive learning with live virtual classes, mentorship sessions, expert speakers, and access to resources to prepare participants for franchise ownership.
Applications for the 2025 cohort are open until May 16, 2025, with no associated costs, but participants should consider the heavy content workload before applying.
