words “final results” to the requirement -
A complete record of all training evaluations (grades / scores / final
results) and an indication of whether the program was completed

record
” requirement since the records will include the students final

the standard more understandable, effective, easier to administer or free from
confusion. A clarifying change may cause
an agency to change a business process.
