What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Casiola's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees may need to pay for supplemental training. If a franchisee requests or Casiola requires additional training, the franchisee must pay the then-current trainer fee, plus any applicable travel and accommodation expenses. The current rate for supplemental training is $750 per day per trainer.
This means that if Casiola requires a franchisee to undergo additional training, or if the franchisee feels they need more training, they will be responsible for paying $750 per day for each trainer involved. This cost is in addition to any expenses Casiola incurs for travel and accommodations for the trainer.
Franchisees should consider this potential expense when budgeting and ensure they understand the circumstances under which supplemental training might be required. It is also important to note that the $750 per day rate is the 'current' rate, implying that it is subject to change, potentially increasing the cost of supplemental training in the future.
