Sylvan Learning Awards Territory in California to Software Development Professional

Sylvan Learning awarded a territory in Simi Valley, Calif., to Venetya Evans.

Evans comes from a career of software development spanning nearly three decades, in addition to a background in foreign studies. Her love of learning and career in IT began when she taught herself and colleagues how to use the office computer.

“Sylvan’s model blends learning with technology, which makes it a perfect fit for my skill set and next career move,” said Evans. “I explored other franchise opportunities, but I was ultimately impressed with Sylvan’s STEM program, curriculum and track record of success with students.”

Almost 30 years ago, Evans wrote a business plan for a learning center and set it aside to tend to her career and family. “Franchising with Sylvan is a way for me to bring my dream business to life,” she said. “But instead of starting from scratch, I’m able to leverage Sylvan’s proven model and lean on their support team to set up my center for success.”

Sylvan Learning has produced proven results for more than four decades and uses one of the most advanced technology-based curriculums that provides trackable progress.

“Venetya’s technology expertise and genuine love of learning make her a great fit for our brand,” said Jeff Stephenson, Vice President of Franchise Development at Sylvan. “She is a prime example of how different career paths can lead to franchise ownership with Sylvan, and we look forward to supporting her as she works towards opening in Simi Valley.”
