What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Hyper Kidz Franchise Disclosure Document, initial training will be held at the Hyper Kidz headquarters, at an affiliate's Hyper Kidz Business, or at another location that Hyper Kidz designates. This training is scheduled to occur no later than 60 days before the franchisee's Hyper Kidz Business begins operations.
The initial training program is designed for the franchisee (or one of their principals), the general manager, and one additional trainee, with the training fee covering the cost for these first three individuals. If the franchisee wishes to send additional people to the training, they will be required to pay Hyper Kidz's then-current training fee for each extra trainee.
It is mandatory for the franchisee (or a principal) and the general manager to complete the initial training program to Hyper Kidz's satisfaction. Failure to do so can result in the franchisee needing to retake the training at their own expense, and repeated failure may lead to the termination of the Franchise Agreement. The franchisee is also responsible for covering all travel and living expenses, including travel, lodging, meals, and wages, for themselves and their personnel during the training.
Hyper Kidz also provides a representative for pre-opening and opening assistance at the franchisee's location for up to 14 days around the opening. Additional on-site opening assistance is available at the franchisee's expense, covering per diem fees and expenses for the representative.
