Developing best practices for training franchisees and their team members requires awareness of the key challenges with franchisee training and a commitment to addressing these issues through a strategic and effective training program. 

A Learning Management System (LMS) should be the centerpiece of a well-designed and executed training program. Without it, you’ll find it very hard to achieve consistency among franchisees and build on brand loyalty. Implementing an effective LMS at your franchise brand enables scalable and effective employee training, but it also includes challenges in the design and development of a training program tailored to the specific needs of your brand. Our panel of experts will explore a number of challenges and best practices for implementing a Franchise Learning Management System.  

There are several key challenges that need to be addressed including:

  • Development of a well-organized, comprehensive operations manual
  • Initial franchisee training at the franchisors HQ
  • The power of onsite training
  • Administration of tests and examinations
  • Ongoing development regarding new policies, products, customer experience, etc.

Join our panel of franchise training experts who will go in-depth while discussing the ins and outs of developing a franchisee training system tailored to the needs of your business:

  • The steps to optimizing the effectiveness of a franchisee training program
