What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Spray Net can require franchisees, their Designated Manager, and SN Specialists to attend additional or refresher training courses. Spray Net can require up to two sessions of additional/refresher training per year. These sessions combined cannot exceed a total of seven days at Spray Net's designated training facility.
In addition to the training at Spray Net's facility, Spray Net may also require up to twenty-four hours of additional or refresher training via an online learning management system or other remote medium. Franchisees are responsible for the costs and expenses incurred by themselves and their designated personnel attending the training, including travel and lodging.
Spray Net will not require the franchisee to pay the Additional Training Fee, plus lodging and travel, in connection with any Additional Training that Spray Net requires. However, the franchisee will be responsible for the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the franchisee and its designated personnel attending such training, which may take place at a training facility that Spray Net designates. This means that while the training itself may be covered, franchisees should budget for travel and accommodation expenses for themselves and their staff.
