Training & Support |
||
Training | Additional training available as needed | We begin training before training begins. Before you even attend classes, we start working with you to answer questions, walk you through materials and assist you in the licensing process. When you arrive for formal training, you're better able to benefit from the interactive and role-playing exercises. This hands-on experience offers much more than any lecture ever could. We even help you build your business during training sessions by making sales calls with you and assisting you in setting up appointments. The last thing we want to do is send you back home with a stack of manuals and little applicable understanding. Training doesn't end when you return home. Our post training makes sure that the learning continues, with weekly conference calls, continuing education and support in your market. No one else offers this level of connectivity because only AmeriCare's Master Franchise Program provides you with an Area Developer to mentor you towards growth. |
