Our popular professional development programs are now primarily delivered using dynamic virtual formats. These comprise convenient 2-hour sessions to maximise engagement and information retention. Participants report 95% satisfaction due to the quality of the content and the use of interactive processes to keep everyone involved. We promise you:
FRI’s professional development programs can be delivered in several ways, enabling franchisors to choose the one that best fits the needs of their business.
Public Programs: These are a cost-effective option that enables you to register specific team members for the most suitable program. An added benefit of this option is the opportunity they have to share ideas with peers from other brands.
Internal Programs: This suits franchisors wanting to have their teams trained together as a group. The benefit of an internal program is it enables us to customise the content around the needs of your business, and it ensures everyone is exposed to the same material at the same time. Depending on the physical location of your team and legislative restrictions, we may be able to offer these as face-to-face programs; however, we can deliver these successfully in a virtual format.
