The training takes place at Crawlspace Medic headquarters in Columbia, South Carolina, or at another location the franchisor specifies.
This requirement ensures that franchisees are adequately prepared to operate their Crawlspace Medic business according to the franchisor's standards before they begin serving customers. Failure to complete the training program to the franchisor's satisfaction can result in the termination of the Franchise Agreement, highlighting the importance of thorough preparation.
In addition to the initial training, Crawlspace Medic may conduct mandatory or optional additional training programs, including an annual conference or national business meeting. Franchisees are required to attend mandatory training programs for up to five days each year and an annual conference or national business meeting for up to three days each year at a location the franchisor designates. Failure to attend mandatory training is a default under the Franchise Agreement.
