The training is held at their facility in Memphis, Tennessee, approximately six times per year. However, the training may be held virtually when travel or in-person meetings are restricted.
New franchise owners can have up to three trainees attend Initial Training during the first 12 months of business operations as part of the Initial Franchise Fee.

A fee is charged for additional or subsequent trainees, and the program's availability is also subject to Amerispec Inspection Services' discretion.
