What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Engel & Volkers Franchise Disclosure Document, the document does not specify the number of on-the-job training hours required for the Engel & Volkers Engage program. The FDD does mention that Sales Advisors must complete, and staff members supporting Sales Advisors may complete, Engel & Völkers Engage, which is conducted in separate virtual modules via web-based platforms over the duration of one week.
The FDD provides information on various training programs, including the Engel & Volkers Leadership Path Training (LPT), which is mandatory for franchisees, principals, or broker managers. It also mentions that Sales Advisors and staff members supporting them must attend Engel & Volkers Engage, and at least one staff member supporting Sales Advisors must attend SPT training. However, the specific breakdown of on-the-job versus classroom training hours for the Engel & Volkers Engage program is not detailed in the provided excerpts.
For prospective franchisees, it is important to note that Engel & Volkers emphasizes ongoing training and may introduce additional mandatory or optional training sessions. The costs associated with attending these training sessions, including travel, accommodation, and out-of-pocket expenses, are the responsibility of the franchisee and their employees or sales advisors. Given the lack of specific information on Engel & Volkers Engage on-the-job training hours, prospective franchisees should directly inquire with Engel & Volkers about the structure and time allocation of the Engel & Volkers Engage program to fully understand the training commitment involved.
