Paul, my understanding is that FAA CPL(H)s are not required to do full downs unless they get to CFI training.
In Australia, you will find full downs are a syllabus requirement for CPL(H)s and must be demonstrated by the student during his flight test. I have visited several of the top helicopter schools in this country and can confirm it does form part of their CPL(H) training.
Another major difference is that while our FAA counterparts normally land on concrete runways with long slides, the Australian pilot mostly lands on grass with very little forward movement after touchdown. This is achieved by holding off the flare until the moment you start to sink, checking up on the collective to load up the rotor, levelling ship and then full up collective to cushion landing. Most if not all the forward movement would have dissipated by touchdown, if done properly.
