As a new franchisee you will attend The Online Outpost's one-week Trading Assistant training program which includes both classroom and in-store training. If your store or budget doesn't allow you the flexibility to travel to us, then you can always complete our web-based training and view the live training via streaming webcast. Our comprehensive program will cover step-by-step use of the operations manual, proprietary software and all the areas important to your success. Upon completion of the training program, you will work closely with our corporate franchise support team to insure a smooth, efficient store opening. There is no cost for this initial training; however you will be responsible for your own travel, meal, and accommodation expenses when you attend training at our corporate facility. | |
