Manage SPRAT recertification timing so a technician's credential does not lapse before a scheduled high-rise job

Steps

1. Check the technician's current SPRAT certification expiration date well before the job's scheduled start
2. Schedule recertification training/assessment to occur within the 6-month window prior to the current certification's expiration date, since completing recert in that window extends validity 3 years from the prior certificate's expiration date rather than from the recert date
3. If recertification will occur outside that early window (i.e., after expiration), confirm what re-entry requirements apply before assigning the technician to work
4. Confirm the recertification is completed under a SPRAT-appointed evaluator at a valid session
5. Update the technician's certification record and any client-facing credential verification before dispatch
