Under what circumstances might Moes Southwest Grill require a Certified Training Manager to be recertified?

According to the 2025 Moe's Southwest Grill Franchise Disclosure Document, Moe's Southwest Grill retains the discretion to mandate recertification for Certified Training Managers under specific circumstances. These include instances where a Certified Training Manager transfers from one franchised business to another, if they no longer meet the current requirements set by Moe's Southwest Grill, or on an annual basis.

This policy ensures that all Certified Training Managers remain up-to-date with the latest training standards and practices of Moe's Southwest Grill. By requiring recertification upon transfer, Moe's Southwest Grill aims to maintain consistency in training quality across different franchise locations. The annual recertification requirement further reinforces this commitment to ongoing professional development and adherence to brand standards.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that any manager designated as a Certified Training Manager must be prepared to undergo recertification as required by Moe's Southwest Grill. This may involve additional training, assessments, or other requirements to maintain their certification. Franchisees should factor in the time and potential costs associated with these recertification requirements when planning their staffing and training programs. It is also important to stay informed about any changes to the recertification policies and requirements as communicated by Moe's Southwest Grill.
