Under what circumstances might Auntie Annes require a Certified Training Manager to be recertified?

According to Auntie Annes's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, a Certified Training Manager may be required to be recertified under specific circumstances. These include if the manager transfers to a different Auntie Annes Franchised Business, if they no longer meet the then-current requirements set by Auntie Annes, or on an annual basis.

This requirement ensures that all Certified Training Managers are up-to-date with Auntie Annes's standards and practices, regardless of their location or tenure. By mandating recertification upon transfer, Auntie Annes maintains consistency in training quality across different franchise locations. The annual recertification requirement further reinforces this commitment to quality and adherence to current standards.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that if they plan to have a Certified Training Manager, they should be aware of the potential need for recertification. This could involve additional time and resources to ensure the manager remains certified. It is important for franchisees to stay informed about any changes to Auntie Annes's requirements for Certified Training Managers to avoid any disruptions in their training programs.
