If Chicken Guy requires additional management training, who is responsible for the tuition and expenses?

According to Chicken Guy's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for the tuition and expenses associated with additional training programs. Chicken Guy reserves the right to require franchisees, their operating principal, restaurant manager, and other designated employees to complete additional training courses beyond the initial manager training program.

Chicken Guy has the right to charge a tuition fee for these additional training programs, with the amount established and invoiced to the franchisee. The franchisee is obligated to pay this tuition fee within 30 days of receiving the invoice from Chicken Guy.

In addition to the tuition fee, the franchisee must cover all travel, living, food, and other incidental expenses incurred by themselves and their employees while attending the additional training. This means that franchisees should budget not only for the direct cost of the training but also for the associated costs of sending personnel to the training location. Franchisees are also responsible for covering Chicken Guy's costs and expenses for creating and distributing additional training materials if the franchisee requests them.
