I don't think they've tightened it up, at least not around here. My local FSDO just wants to see a signoff indicating that 61.55 has been met. Whether or not any of that training has actually been done, the FSDO doesn't verify. So it's *very* abused.

Some operators take 61.55 seriously and do the training, but many don't.
