ED-C shared the request with Assistant Administrator (AA)-O.
AA-O asked for clarification of what was requested.

Surveyor shared with ED-C the education was based on the month of hire and was a rolling year depending on that date; an example was given if an employee was hired on 2/1/2023 then the training hours and topics that would be reviewed would be from 2/1/2024 to 2/1/2025 since that would be the most recent year based on the hire date.
