The course must be completed by the end of the operator’s first full cycle that begins on or after October 1, 2010.

The training is available in three formats: Correspondence (Course ID 2953), Classroom (Course ID 2952) and Web-based (Course ID 2954). These are the only courses that fulfill the requirement.
