For City Publications, what must a franchisee complete before the second (on-site) training session can be scheduled?

According to City Publications' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must complete all of the business setup activity as defined in the first training session before the second on-site session can be scheduled. This means that before attending the on-site training, franchisees need to ensure they have fulfilled all the requirements and tasks outlined during the initial training session.

This requirement ensures that franchisees are well-prepared and have a foundational understanding of the business operations before moving on to the more hands-on, on-site training. By completing the business setup activities beforehand, franchisees can maximize the benefits of the on-site training and address any specific challenges or questions they may have encountered during the setup process. This approach helps to streamline the training process and ensures that franchisees are ready to launch their City Publications business effectively.

For a prospective City Publications franchisee, this means prioritizing and diligently completing all tasks and activities assigned during the first training session. This may include setting up necessary accounts, securing required resources, and understanding the fundamental aspects of the business model. By being proactive and organized in completing these initial steps, franchisees can ensure a smooth transition to the on-site training and ultimately, a successful launch of their franchise.
