When we hold mandatory conferences, you will be required to pay a conference fee per person, and, in addition, you must pay all of the travel and living expenses for you and any other attendees who attend on your behalf. These conferences will be held at our corporate headquarters or at another location chosen by us. We may provide other conferences from time to time, and you may be required to pay a conference fee for these additional conferences based upon the direct costs to us of retaining speakers and other direct expenses associated with the conference.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, attendance at the optional pre-training sessions held before regional or national conferences is not mandatory. However, Learningrx requires at least one person from each center to attend the mandatory portion of any regional or national conferences. If a franchisee operates multiple centers, they must send at least one person per center.
Franchisees are responsible for paying a conference fee for each attendee, as well as covering all travel and living expenses. These conferences can be held at Learningrx's corporate headquarters or another location chosen by Learningrx. Failure to attend mandatory conferences may result in a fine.
Learningrx also provides sales training, which is mandatory for centers with consultation closure rates below 40%. These centers must participate until their closure rate reaches at least 40% or for a minimum of three months, with at least four training sessions, at a cost of $75 per 60-minute session. New directors operating within the first year of the franchise agreement receive sales training at no additional cost, while directors new due to a center transfer must participate in sales training until their assessment-to-student rate reaches at least 40%.
