We have generally shied away from the approach of having an attestation signed because it leaves open the question of: "What if someone doesn't sign it?" We would not want to give them any ammunition to argue that they were not trained on it, aware of it, or that they fell outside of it for some reason. The value of the attestation, if there is any, seems to be outweighed by this potential, even as slight as it may be.

If yes, how often is it required (one time or recurring) and how is it obtained (manual or electronic database platform)? Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Jennifer Jennifer S.
