What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Dryject provides initial training at no additional charge for the Franchise Owner and one additional person. Franchisees can send two additional people to the initial training class on a space-available basis at no additional charge. However, Dryject reserves the right to charge a per diem fee for other training courses. As of the date of the 2025 Disclosure Document, the daily per diem fee ranges from $700-$900, depending upon Dryject's personnel involved in this training. The franchisee is also responsible for all out-of-pocket expenses (including travel costs, if any) for all training.
Item 6 outlines various fees that Dryject may charge. Under the heading "Additional Training, Assistance & Refresher Training", Dryject may charge a "Reasonable per diem amount" before additional training, assistance, or refresher training begins.
In summary, while initial training has some complimentary spots, Dryject can charge a per diem fee (currently $700-$900) for additional training courses, refresher training, or assistance, plus cover travel costs. This means franchisees should budget for potential training expenses beyond the initial program, especially if they plan to have multiple staff members trained or require ongoing support.
