Given that stewards recruited after 2010 are required to attend the etiquette programme. Stewards recruited after 2012 are required to attend the hospitality programme. We have to infer from the 2 statements about an air steward of Galaxy who attended both the etiquette programme and the hospitality programm
A. The steward was recruited after 2010 and before 2012. The steward wouldn't have attended hospitality programme. Incorrect
B. The steward, though recruited after 2010, resigned and rejoined after 2012. Why we need to assume that the steward resigned. Even if they continued after 2010, they would have attended both programme. Incorrect
C. The steward though recruited before 2010 for the first time, resigned and rejoined after 2012. Same as B . Incorrect
D. The steward was recruited after 2010. This can be inferred as the steward joined after 2010, so the steward attended both the programmes. Correct
E. The steward was recruited after 2012. The steward wouldn't have attended Etiquette programme. Incorrect
A. The steward was recruited after 2010 and before 2012. The steward wouldn't have attended hospitality programme. Incorrect

E. The steward was recruited after 2012. The steward wouldn't have attended Etiquette programme. Incorrect

Was leaning towards B at first, but looking at all choiches. E makes the most sense.
If you join after 2010 - you have to take the EP, if you join after 2012, you have to take the HP. The passage never mention that the HP would replace the etiquette program. Thus, it is likely that both exist.
If both exist, someone joining after 2012 would have to do both.
To be obliged to do the EP, you have to join after 2010.
To be obliged to do the HP, you have to join after 2012.
Someone receuited after 2012 fulfills both.
If the stweard would have resigned in 2010, after being employed, we cannot know for sure if the person fulfilled the EP.
I am not sure if this makes sense, but it was my reasoning!:)
