TRAINING

All new Subway^® franchise owners are required to attend a two-week training course at the Subway^® Support Centre in Cambridge ahead of opening their own stores. This intensive training programme provides you with an overview of operating a Subway^® store and running a business, including classroom and in-store sessions. On completion of the training, franchise owners are well-equipped to take the next steps in opening their own store. Similar training programmes are available for Subway^® store managers as well.
