What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Gokhale Method's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Teachers' Manual contains details about maintaining teacher qualification. Specifically, Item 7.2 discusses continuing training programs that Gokhale Method may require from time to time to maintain approval to teach approved formats. The manual will detail these courses, seminars and other training programs.
These continuing training programs may include attendance at the Annual Meeting, participation in Teacher Webinars, peer review of teacher trainees, and involvement in Gokhale® Active. Failure to participate in these programs may result in suspension of the franchisee's right to teach the Gokhale System until the training is completed and re-approval is granted. If a franchisee teaches while suspended, Gokhale Method may terminate the Franchise Agreement immediately.
As part of maintaining teaching approval, Gokhale Method may request franchisees to submit audiotapes or videotapes of their teaching at reasonable intervals, as detailed in the Teachers' Manual. These recordings may be submitted for peer review by other Gokhale Method teachers. The FDD does not specify a page number in the Teachers' Manual where this information can be found.
