Are franchisees required to bring a tablet to the Auntie Annes Management Training Program?

According to Auntie Anne's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to bring a dedicated tablet to the Management Training Program. This tablet must meet the hardware and software specifications necessary to use Auntie Anne's electronic learning management system.

This requirement ensures that trainees can fully participate in the program and access the necessary materials. The Management Training Program utilizes various instructional methods, including classroom lectures, videos, workbook assignments, role-playing, and hands-on experience in a fully operational Auntie Anne's shop. The tablet will likely be used to access digital versions of these materials and participate in online learning modules.

Franchisees should confirm the specific hardware and software requirements for the tablet with Auntie Anne's to ensure compatibility with their learning management system. This upfront investment is necessary for the successful completion of the Management Training Program, which is a prerequisite for operating an Auntie Anne's franchise.
