What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to the 2025 Hawthorn Suites By Wyndham FDD, the Continuing Education Fee is included within a broader range of costs associated with training and tuition. Specifically, the low and high ends of the estimated range encompass the Continuing Education Fee, tuition for the general manager to attend the required Hospitality Management Program, and the cost for up to three days of required Opening Training. The higher end of this range also accounts for an additional representative attending and paying tuition for the Hospitality Management Program.

This means that prospective Hawthorn Suites By Wyndham franchisees do not pay a separate, standalone fee for continuing education. Instead, it is bundled with other essential training programs. The total cost will vary depending on factors such as travel expenses and the number of representatives attending the Hospitality Management Program.

For franchisees, this bundled approach may offer some convenience, but it also necessitates careful budgeting to account for all included components. Franchisees should clarify with Hawthorn Suites By Wyndham the exact breakdown of these costs to understand how much is specifically allocated to continuing education versus other training elements. This will help in accurately assessing the value and necessity of each component within the bundled fee.
