What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Gokhale Method Franchise Disclosure Document, as part of maintaining teaching approval, franchisees may be required to submit audiotapes or videotapes of their teaching at reasonable intervals. The specific timing and details for these submissions will be outlined in the then-current Teachers' Manual.
Gokhale Method may use these recordings for peer review by other Gokhale Method teachers, and the franchisee consents to this submission as part of the franchise agreement. This process is part of the continuing training and quality control measures implemented by Gokhale Method to ensure consistent and high-quality instruction across all franchise locations.
Failure to comply with continuing training requirements, including the submission of requested recordings, may result in suspension of the franchisee's right to teach the Gokhale System. If a franchisee teaches while suspended, Gokhale Method reserves the right to terminate the Franchise Agreement immediately.
