Carbones Pizzeria has the right to charge for this additional training, and payment is required before attendance. The franchisee is responsible for covering all costs and expenses for their owners and employees to attend the training. The training will be held at locations designated by Carbones Pizzeria.
Franchisees or their representatives will not receive any compensation or reimbursement from Carbones Pizzeria for services performed or expenses incurred during any training period or seminar.
