In order to conduct educational activities in the territory of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to obtain a special license. This process has a high duration, and therefore it will not bring positive emotions. However, only teachers who individually provide services related to training are able to avoid it.
An educational license is necessary primarily for institutions and individual entrepreneurs who want to open a company with the subsequent hiring of teaching staff.
Who needs to go through licensing?
The procedure for such a procedure in this situation is regulated by some legislative acts. This is the law on education, and the law on licensing, and the provision on licensing of educational activities.
But who exactly needs an educational license? It is required to receive it to state and non-state institutions that are going to provide training and education services using special programs for these purposes. We are talking about pre-school organizations, educational institutions, vocational and additional education, other forms and types of training.
Based on the foregoing, a license to carry out educational activities is required for all organizations associated with training. But there are exceptions.
A similar document is not required if you:
- you are going to issue one-time lectures, conduct separate seminars with trainings, after which there is no need for certification and issuance of the corresponding “crusts” made on official forms;
- engage in individual entrepreneurship, personally providing private lessons, without involving other employees for these purposes.
What is required for licensing
Obtaining an educational license implies that a number of conditions must be met. It is for this reason that the process is time-consuming and time-consuming. Starting from the moment of registration of a legal entity or individual entrepreneurship, more than one month can pass. And it should be noted that collecting the necessary documentation is not the most difficult task.
First of all, it is necessary to study the requirements put forward to the room, the equipment used, the attracted staff of teachers. Do not forget about training programs. But these are just the main points. Much will depend on the type of organization, on the age of students, on the time of classes.
To obtain an educational license, you will need to take into account sanitary standards with fire standards, take into account special guidelines that describe how training programs are developed. It is necessary to think about drawing up at least a preliminary schedule and to recruit teachers.

A legal address alone is not enough. It requires a room that is suitable for educational purposes, will comply with all standards and laws. It will be necessary to take into account not only the minimum size, but also the number of rooms, the presence of separate entrances, the territory on which the site can be placed. But much in this situation will depend on the type of institution. Therefore, if you need an educational license, you need to study all the rules for a certain type of activity, and approach responsibly to the choice of premises.
To go through the licensing procedure, you will need to collect the title documents for the immovable object. Therefore, it is necessary to check whether everything is “clean” with the papers, even before the conclusion of the lease or purchase.
It is necessary to bring the room into the required form, being guided by all safety standards. You should consider repairing using the recommended materials. Do not do without installing alarms, fire sensors, lighting fixtures. In addition, the temperature regime must be observed. All this will be checked by employees of the SES and the State Surveillance. They will be the ones who will issue safety conclusions.
If it is planned that students will receive meals on the territory of the educational institution, it will be necessary to equip not only the kitchen, but also the dining room. In addition, permission from the Rospotrebnadzor is also required.
It is necessary to purchase all the necessary furniture, equipment and inventory. In this matter, it is also necessary to be guided not only by safety criteria, but also by sanitary standards. All purchased goods must be accompanied by certificates, otherwise an educational license will not be obtained.
