which is correct?
1. i took/had my training last Feb 2007.
2. i took/had the workshop(flight attendant workshop) last Feb. 2007.
thanks!
It is better to say:
undergo training
attend/take a course
I last underwent training in Feb 2007.
I last attended a flight attendant workshop in Feb 2007.
You don't say 'last Feb 2007' because there is only one 'Feb 2007'.
not a teacher
I had last participated in a flight attendant workshop in Feb 2007.

Why past perfect? Shouldn't the sentence be in the simple past tense when the time is stated?
I had last participated in a flight attendant workshop in Feb 2007. (Use past perfect for better clarity)

The past perfect tense is used to express 'action in the past before another action in the past.' How could it be used in the context?
The sentence would mean the person participated in the workshop before Feb 2007 which is not what writer means to say.
.You can use past perfect for expressing an action or event occurred in the distant past
I had last participated in a flight attendant workshop in Feb 2007. (Use past perfect for better clarity)
No, it isn't "I last participated..." is correct in that sentence.Teachers
Can I have a second opinion on whether the sentence is correct? Thanks.
No, it isn't "I last participated..." is correct in that sentence.
I last participated in a flight attendant workshop in Feb 2007. This is correct.bhaisabab
I beg your pardon?
You can use ‘take’ which means the same as ‘undergo’ with reference to ‘training’, as:
I took a similar training at another institution.
Why do I have to take this training?
No, you can "take a training course".Thanks bhaisahab & Raymott.
That's what I thought, the past perfect tense is used to 'relate an earlier past event to a past event'. In this case, only one past event was stated.
Another question about a previous post:
You take a course. Can you say you 'take a training'?
