What This Means (2024 FDD)

According to Kidokinetics' 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, satisfactory completion of the initial training program is required before a Kidokinetics franchise can open. This requirement is confirmed in the Franchise Disclosure Questionnaire, which the franchisee must complete.

This condition means that prospective Kidokinetics franchisees must successfully complete the training program to be allowed to operate a franchise. This is a fairly standard practice in franchising, as it ensures that franchisees are properly equipped with the knowledge and skills to represent the Kidokinetics brand and operate the business according to the franchisor's standards.

The Franchise Disclosure Questionnaire includes a question to confirm the franchisee's understanding of this requirement. By answering 'Yes' to this question, the franchisee acknowledges that they must complete the initial training program before opening their Kidokinetics franchise or before a transfer of the franchise is approved.
