What happens if a Gokhale Method franchisee's lesson video is not approved?
Gokhale_Method Franchise · 2024 FDDAnswer from 2024 FDD Document
As part of teaching your practice students, you must prepare at least six videos in which you record yourself teaching each one of the six separate Gokhale Foundations lessons accompanied by self-critiques of each lesson. These recordings will be reviewed by your peers, and you will be required to view recordings submitted by other trainees and to evaluate them. Once reviewed, each lesson will be submitted for approval. If a lesson video is not approved, you will be required to submit another video of the same lesson. A video of each of the six lessons must be approved before you can become qualified to teach.
If you do not complete all of the Initial Training and have not qualified to teach within six months of attending the Immersion Week, we may terminate the Franchise Agreement upon 30 days' notice and your failure to cure.
