Abstract:
A priori, it may seem that the terms "business management" and "education" are contradictory. Statements such as "education is not a profitable business" or "education does not make you money" make us think that these two terms are simply not compatible. Nothing further from the truth. There are no end of businesses which allow us to create successful educational projects and we shall be developing and analyzing them throughout this work. The better the business and management knowledge, the better the chance of the company succeeding.

Teacher training is essential but it is just as important that we form people so that they become good business managers. The difficult part of setting up educational companies is to determine where the balance between teaching and business management lies. Finding this balance is vital for the success of any company in the 21st century.
