Training doesn't end with getting basic pilot certification. There comes a point when intensive training is required for each mand and model of aircraft one flies.

The last aircraft type I was trained on had more than 110 hours of dual just for that one specific aircraft, initially. Then another 25 hours of line training, and 100 hours of time on the line before I was considered "trained."

What's being discussed here is just scratching the surface, to get started.
