What kind of High Altitude Upset Training are HA pilots required to do?

According to the FAA (http://www.faa.gov/news/fact_sheets/...m?newsId=16774), loss of control in flight -- often at higher altitudes and confronting more- complex automation problems -- is now the number one cause of civil aviation accidents, mostly because other factors have been greatly reduced by technology.

What kind of high altitude upset recovery training, and (near-) stall recovery training, are Hawaiian Air pilots offered today, if any? If such loss of control training is offered, how frequently do pilots go through it?

Thanks!
