Initial Training Program: The franchisee and up to two designated attendees must attend the Initial Training Program, which must be completed to the franchisor’s satisfaction within 180 days of signing the agreement. The training tuition fee is $4,995 and includes lodging and some meals, but not travel or miscellaneous expenses.

Territory Protection
Jungle Driving School provides each franchisee with a Protected Territory, typically defined by a population of approximately 10,000 people aged 13 to 18, depending on geographic and demographic factors. Within this area, no other Jungle Driving School franchise can be established, and no other party may operate under the same Proprietary Marks and System.
However, this territory is not exclusive, as the franchisor and its affiliates reserve certain rights to operate or authorize similar businesses through alternative channels.
The franchisor may still sell or distribute products and services via e-commerce, mail orders, or other methods within the Protected Territory, as long as those are not conducted from a physical Jungle Driving School location inside that area.
