It is doubtful this was accomplished, because we know they didn't discover the missing procedures until after the accident.
It was accomplished satisfactorily, otherwise it would have been noted as a deficiency.

Island did NOT contract their 135 training to Eurosafety. The Eurosafety training was in addition to the FAA required training as stated by the POI “it was never something where, you know, I either approved, accepted, or required it, or, you know, anything to that effect.”
