What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bee Organized's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for the ongoing training of their employees, staff, and all other employees of the franchised business. This training must adhere to Bee Organized's standards and specifications. The franchisor, Bee Organized, will structure, configure, and establish the training program, potentially offering it in various phases.
This means that after the initial training provided by Bee Organized to the Managing Owner and one manager, the franchisee takes over the responsibility of continuously training their team. This includes ensuring that all employees are up-to-date with the franchisor's standards and specifications, which are subject to change. The franchisee needs to allocate resources and time for this ongoing training to maintain the quality and consistency of services offered.
Furthermore, the franchisee, or the Managing Owner and Manager if the franchisee is a corporate entity, must attend and successfully complete any refresher or system-wide training courses that Bee Organized may periodically designate or offer. This ensures that the franchisee and their management remain aligned with the franchisor's standards and any updates to the Bee Organized system. The franchisee bears the cost and expense of attending these additional training programs.
