What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Studio Readiness & Evaluation' training involves 0 hours of training and 10 hours of job training. This training takes place virtually, in Woodbury, MN, or at another location designated by Basecamp Fitness.
This means that while there isn't a formal training component, a significant amount of on-the-job training is dedicated to ensuring the studio is ready for operation and meets Basecamp Fitness's standards. The flexibility in location (virtual, Woodbury, or another designated location) provides some convenience for franchisees and their staff.
Prospective franchisees should clarify the specific criteria used during the 'Studio Readiness & Evaluation' to fully understand what is expected of them. Understanding the benchmarks for evaluation can help franchisees prepare adequately and ensure a smooth studio launch. Franchisees should also inquire about the content of the 10 hours of job training.
