What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to All Team's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee and certain employees are required to attend and complete training. Specifically, the Franchisee or its principal owner, the recruiter for Permanent Placement Business, and the manager of the Temporary Service Business must attend an initial training program. The franchisee must also ensure that employees who participate in the operation, marketing, or management of the agency attend and complete all training provided by All Team.
If the franchisee's Principal Owner is required to attend and does not satisfactorily complete the training program, All Team has the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement. The franchisee is responsible for all transportation, lodging, meals, and other expenses incurred by them and their employees while attending the training program. All Team may also provide or require additional or refresher training programs from time to time, with the franchisee bearing the associated costs for themselves and their employees.
This mandatory training ensures that the franchisee and key personnel are well-versed in All Team's systems, marks, and operational standards. By requiring training for specific roles like recruiters and managers, All Team aims to maintain consistent service quality and brand representation across all franchise locations. The franchisor also maintains the right to modify the training based on the experience of the franchisee and its principal owner.
