Who must approve individuals attending the Training Program and all Supplemental Training programs for a Bang Cookies franchise?

According to Bang Cookies' 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisor, Bang Cookies, designates and oversees the Training Program and any supplemental training programs. Specifically, the franchisee must complete the Training Program and any additional training programs to the franchisor's reasonable satisfaction.

This means that Bang Cookies has the authority to determine the content, standards, and requirements of the training programs. The franchisor also decides whether a franchisee or their designated Operating Manager has successfully completed the training. This control allows Bang Cookies to ensure that all franchisees and managers are properly trained in the Bang Cookies system, which helps maintain consistency and quality across all franchise locations.

For a prospective franchisee, this highlights the importance of actively participating in and meeting the standards of the Training Program. Failure to complete the training to Bang Cookies' satisfaction can result in a breach of the franchise agreement. Franchisees should be prepared to invest the necessary time and effort to meet the franchisor's training requirements to avoid any potential issues.
