Who is responsible for selecting the personnel to attend training programs for an Embassy Suites franchise?

According to Embassy Suites's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for selecting the personnel to attend the required training programs. While Embassy Suites may specify certain required and optional training programs, the responsibility of choosing which personnel attend these programs rests with the franchisee.

This means that as an Embassy Suites franchisee, you have the autonomy to decide which of your employees or management company personnel will benefit most from the training programs offered. This allows you to tailor the training to the specific needs and roles within your hotel.

However, it's important to note that while you select the personnel, you are also responsible for covering all associated costs. This includes any fees charged by Embassy Suites for the training itself, as well as travel, lodging, and other expenses incurred by the personnel attending the programs. Therefore, franchisees should carefully consider their budget and training needs when making these selections.
