What will I learn during training?
All prospective franchise owners attend a 3-day training course at our headquarters in Mooroolbark, Victoria. During your training course, you’ll get to meet our founder and managing director, Jim Penman, as well as dozens of other prospective franchise owners who are also looking to kickstart their new careers.
Our training program seeks to equip people with skills that they’ll be able to use not only in business, but in life. Over the course of 3 days, you’ll learn everything you need to know about starting and running a successful business. From customer service to sales; from resilience building to marketing, we’ll cover it all.
For more specialised divisions like Dog Wash, Cleaning, Mowing, and Test & Tag, trainees will undergo a few extra days of divisional specific training. The purpose of these extra training days is to equip our trainees with the technical skills necessary to run their business.

Where is training located?
Jim’s Group training is held at our headquarters in Mooroolbark, Victoria. You will be hosted at our training facility, Foothills Conference Centre, which is located literally within a 30 second walk from our head office.
Spending a couple of days at our headquarters will give you a better sense of who we are and what we’re about. You’ll get to meet dozens of other people who are also looking for a career shift and you’ll hear inspiring stories from not only our presenters, but your future colleagues.
COVID-19 has changed the way we live and the way we work. For those who aren’t able to travel to Victoria for training, training can be done remotely at state-run hubs. These hubs are supervised by a franchisor and you’ll undergo training via online platforms. You’ll be in a small group with other trainees, so you’ll still be able to get a sense of the community that the Jim’s family provides.
