What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brain Balance's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Advanced Training is provided up to two times per year. This ongoing training is delivered through webinars, courses within the Brain Balance Training Site, and workshops. The training content may cover topics such as enrollment enhancement, assessment and program delivery, and marketing.
It's important to note that while Brain Balance provides this Advanced Training, it is at the franchisee's cost and expense. Additionally, attendance at regional workshops, if offered, is required for the franchisee, Center Director, and Program Director, also at their own expense. The FDD also states that in some years, Brain Balance may not offer any advanced training.
Prospective franchisees should factor in the potential costs associated with these training sessions when considering the overall investment. It would be prudent to inquire about the typical frequency and format of these advanced training sessions, as well as the estimated costs involved, to better prepare a financial forecast for the franchise.
