Held at Pirtek's support center in Rockledge, Florida, or another specified location, this training covers topics such as leadership, management, marketing strategies, and operational procedures.

In-Center "Field" Training: To provide hands-on experience, franchisees undergo a one-week in-center "field" training program. Conducted at an operational Pirtek Service Center, this training offers a real-world understanding of the business's day-to-day operations.
