Prospective franchisees should note that this in-store training is a component of a broader training curriculum that includes classroom lessons on topics such as mission and vision, policy review, employee management, and inventory management. The hands-on training for brownies and pie crumble, along with other menu items, is designed to equip managers with the skills to properly prepare Cinnaholic's offerings. Franchisees are responsible for training their own employees, using the knowledge gained during their own training.
