Delta and/or Pindeavor have no ability to change that.
That's the stated goal of the program, how they intend to do it, I don't know.

We have a subgroup that will develop a proposal for an alternate track to an R-ATP. The track would allow an
aspiring pilot to study and train for a Type Rating in a transport aircraft without having to acquire a thousand or
fifteen hundred hours of flight time. This sort of course will entail intense work directed at an airline job, but
should not require as many years to complete as the current tracks.
