I’ve read this sentence 100 times and interpreted it a few different ways.

One interpretation is that training or transfer has to occur by the 120th day prior to the effective date. So you’d have to be done with or at least start training by October for a 12/31/2020 effective date.

My other interpretation is that training cannot commence until you’re within 120 days of the bid effective date.

Either way I think this sentence requires multiple effective dates in the annual system bid.
