I'm not hiring for the majors so I really don't know. The general consensus is that recent training issues are a red flag, but a single event (or multiple with good interview answers) a long time ago aren't a big deal.
A new hire at a regional is 3-4 years away from being somewhat competitive at majors - that should be plenty of time. Just don't form a pattern and keep failing/needing more training.
The worst thing you can do is try to hide it. The conversation you DON'T want to have at a major interview is "so, you said you have no failures or unsats?" "no, sir" "any issues in training?" "not really, no..." "ok, so what is this R6 event you had as a new hire?" "well, uhm, no, I mean..." "ok, we'll call you, don't call us."
