What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bath Tune Up's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, to be considered a graduate of the training program and receive a Certification of Training, a franchisee must successfully complete all phases of the training program. Furthermore, the franchisee or their manager must complete the initial training program to Bath Tune Up's satisfaction before beginning operation of the franchised business.
Bath Tune Up provides training for up to two people without charge. If there is room at a training session, the franchisee may send additional people to in-person training. Bath Tune Up will train one additional person at the same training session as the original trainee at no additional charge. Additional people may attend either the same or later in-person training sessions, subject to class availability, by paying a charge of $150 per person per day. The franchisee must pay all other costs associated with in-person training, including lodging and airfare, car rental, meals, and wages for employees during training.
At the initial training program, Bath Tune Up provides access to proprietary information for use in training staff, but these materials remain the sole property of Bath Tune Up. Bath Tune Up may also require franchisees or their designated personnel to attend additional training courses, seminars, conferences, or other programs that they consider relevant or appropriate to the successful operation of the System, with the franchisee responsible for all associated costs.
