What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the initial training program includes a total of 64 hours of classroom training. The training covers various subjects such as sales, administration and operations, product knowledge, and field operations.
Specifically, the sales training consists of 16 hours, administration and operations training involves 32 hours, product training is 8 hours, and field training is another 8 hours. All classroom training takes place in California, Virginia, or another location designated by Bumble Roofing.
Notably, the FDD indicates that there are zero hours of on-the-job training included in the initial program. This means that while franchisees and their managers will receive classroom instruction on various aspects of the Bumble Roofing business, they will not receive any supervised practical experience as part of the initial training. This may necessitate additional on-site support or self-directed learning to fully master the operational aspects of the franchise.
