What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Chocolate Fish Coffee's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Closing the Location' training is held in Sacramento, CA, or at the franchisee's location. This applies to all listed training subjects.
The training program includes both classroom and on-the-job training. For 'Closing the Location', the training consists of 0 hours of classroom training and 2 hours of on-the-job training. This suggests that the 'Closing the Location' training is primarily hands-on and practical.
The fact that training can occur at the franchisee's location offers flexibility. This could reduce travel costs for the franchisee and allow training to be tailored to the specific layout and equipment of their Chocolate Fish Coffee shop. However, franchisees should confirm with Chocolate Fish Coffee the specific conditions under which training is conducted at their location versus in Sacramento.
