What are Derrick Johnson's responsibilities as a Cinnaholic training instructor?

According to Cinnaholic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Derrick Johnson is a training instructor who trains franchisees in bakery operations. As of the FDD date, he has 11 years of experience in this field and has been working with Cinnaholic since May 2023.

Cinnaholic requires a minimum of one manager from each location to become certified through their training program. While Cinnaholic does not charge a training or registration fee for these managers, the franchisee is responsible for covering all travel and living expenses, such as transportation, lodging, meals, and compensation, for the managers attending the training. Additional managers may be permitted to attend the initial training program, but the franchisee will be responsible for all associated costs incurred by Cinnaholic in providing training to these additional managers.

The initial training program lasts a minimum of one week (5 to 7 days) per attendee and consists of in-bakery training at a Cinnaholic-approved facility, typically in Atlanta, Georgia, or another designated training facility. The training is conducted as often as Cinnaholic deems necessary, according to a predetermined schedule set by the Training Department. Franchisees and their managers may also be required to attend additional training programs, which may involve a reasonable fee.
