When is the latest that a C12 Group franchisee must pay the Training and Technology Fee?

According to C12 Group's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Training and Technology Fee must be paid before attending Training Week. Specifically, the FDD states that upon the franchisee's payment of the Training and Technology Fee, C12 Group will send the franchisee the C12 Group Area Chair Training Kit prior to attending Training Week. This kit includes the training curriculum, business plan documents, reading and reference materials, and other C12 branded items.

This means a prospective C12 Group franchisee must budget for and remit the Training and Technology Fee in advance to receive the necessary training materials and be eligible to participate in Training Week. Since the training kit is provided 'prior to attending Training Week,' the payment deadline is effectively whenever C12 Group requires it to allow sufficient time to process the payment and deliver the kit.

Missing this payment deadline would likely delay or prevent the franchisee from attending Training Week, which C12 Group requires to be completed to their satisfaction. This could significantly impact the franchisee's ability to launch their C12 Group business effectively, as the training and materials are essential for understanding C12 Group's business model and operational procedures.
