What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Degree Wellness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, up to two individuals may attend the Business Training portion of the Initial Training program without incurring additional charges. This complimentary attendance typically includes the franchisee (if an individual), the Principal Owners (if the franchisee is a legal entity), and the General Manager (if any). The FDD specifies that if the Principal Owner is not the General Manager, both individuals must attend the Business Training. If the General Manager is also the Principal Owner, then one other employee may attend without charge.
Degree Wellness may permit additional individuals to attend the Business Training beyond the initially allowed attendees. However, this is contingent upon space availability and the payment of Degree Wellness's then-current tuition fee for each additional attendee. The franchisee is responsible for covering all costs and expenses associated with complying with Degree Wellness's Business Training requirements.
This policy allows Degree Wellness to maintain control over the training environment and ensure adequate resources for all participants. For a prospective franchisee, this means carefully planning who will attend the initial training and budgeting for potential tuition costs if they wish to send more than the allotted number of individuals. It is important to confirm the current tuition fee with Degree Wellness and understand the space availability limitations before making arrangements for additional attendees.
