What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Carls's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Learning Inventory Systems' training for General Managers takes place at a 'Designated Training Facility'. This training is part of the broader FMTP (Franchise Management Training Program) that Carls provides to the Operating Principal, General Manager, and six Shift Leaders at no charge, provided the training occurs within two years of signing the Franchise Agreement.
The FMTP program includes both classroom instruction, in-restaurant training at a Carls Jr. Restaurant, and online training. The classroom and on-the-job training for 'Learning Inventory Systems' is specifically held at a Designated Training Facility.
Prospective franchisees should note that while Carls provides this initial training, they are responsible for all travel, living, and other expenses incurred while attending the training. Additionally, Carls reserves the right to modify or waive the training requirements based on an individual's experience. Franchisees should confirm the location of the Designated Training Facility and any associated costs with Carls prior to commencing operations.
