What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cicis's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, to renew a franchise agreement, a franchisee must comply with the then-current qualification and training requirements. The specific details of these requirements are not outlined in this section.
However, the FDD does mention initial and ongoing training programs for managers and other personnel. It states that designated personnel must attend additional training programs and seminars as required by Cicis. Cicis may charge a reasonable fee for these additional training programs and seminars. Franchisees are responsible for expenses, including travel, lodging, meals, and wages, incurred by them or their personnel in connection with any training program.
To fully understand the qualification and training requirements for franchise renewal, a prospective franchisee should inquire with Cicis about the specific criteria and standards in place at the time of renewal. This will ensure they are aware of all necessary steps to maintain their franchise agreement.
