    If promotion to the role of ACCOUNT SALES MANAGER (or other role) does not happen prior to the expiration of the 12-mos completion period, the SALES TRAINEE role will be vacated due to end of assignment unless an exception applies.

    For exception, based on continued high performance, no open roles and certification completion, a manager may extend the 12-month completion period an additional 6-months.
