How will Fly To Fit training classes be scheduled?

Answer from 2024 FDD Document

Training classes will be scheduled in accordance with the needs of new franchisees. We anticipate holding training classes in advance of the opening of the franchisee's location, doing so remotely, at a corporate location, and at the franchisee's location once sufficient build-out has been completed and close to being open, as elaborated on in the additional questions below. This may change as we start to bring on more franchisees.

The instruction materials consist primarily of our Onboarding Checklist which contains links organized by section for all applicable written procedures, training videos, learning checks referred to as Knowledge Reviews (automatically graded with correct answers provided, with a structure in place requiring successful completion via a minimum score threshold), and a shadowing/coaching checklist and approval process all required to successfully and fully complete the necessary training. Additional instructional material will be provided consisting of additional similar training (additional procedures, additional video training, additional checklists, etc.) for "higher-level" functions required of the franchisee and/or the individual acting as the owner/operator and/or manager of the franchisee.

Training classes will be led by the franchisor(s) and/or its delegate(s), such as a corporateemployed, tenured individual who has been delegated to lead some or all aspects of training (i.e. a manager / assistant manager / senior employee who works at a corporate (franchisor) location). Some aspects of training classes will be self-directed and led by the franchisee themselves as they follow the training structure in place which would include video training and the aforementioned instructional materials created by the franchisor/corporate (so in that sense, it is still being led by the franchisor/corporate/its delegate(s), just done remotely and/or by pre-recorded materials listed in the Onboarding/Training structure).

The instructor, of the franchisor(s) have experience dating back to the establishment of corporate. Franchisor/corporate delegate(s) may have various lengths of experience depending on the individual delegate, but they would typically have minimally one year of experience, if not more, and have had successfully completed both their own training and facilitation of others' training in the past; the delegate(s) would typically be in a management role at a corporate location or be a "senior," tenured employee if not in a formal management position.

What This Means (2024 FDD)

According to the 2024 Fly To Fit Franchise Disclosure Document, training classes will be scheduled based on the needs of new franchisees. The training may occur remotely, at a corporate location, or at the franchisee's location once it is sufficiently built out and close to opening. The franchisor anticipates holding training classes in advance of the franchisee's location opening. However, the FDD indicates that this scheduling approach may change as Fly To Fit brings on more franchisees.

The training program utilizes an Onboarding Checklist with links to written procedures, training videos, and Knowledge Reviews, which are automatically graded. Franchisees must meet a minimum score threshold to successfully complete the training. The program also includes a shadowing/coaching checklist and approval process. Additional instructional material will be provided for higher-level functions required of the franchisee, owner/operator, or manager.

Fly To Fit training classes will be led by the franchisors or their delegates, such as corporate-employed individuals with experience in the company. Some training aspects will be self-directed, using video training and instructional materials created by the franchisor. Instructors from the franchisor have experience dating back to the establishment of the corporate entity. Corporate delegate instructors typically have at least one year of experience and have successfully completed their own training and facilitated training for others, often holding management roles at a corporate location or being senior, tenured employees.
