For OSHA, the publication linked bellow tells you what training records are required for each standard. The standards that require signatures are specific on what information is to be on the document and who’s signature is required.
I’m guessing that signature requirements vary between agencies. So is possible your inspector was drawing from a different standard.

On the specific point you highlight, we had an IATA inspection and produced sign in sheets that had a wet signature of each participant and a wet signature
on the mandatory written test of each participant. The instructor wet-signed and dated the sign in. The inspector stated “Good. If you had not gotten actual (wet) signatures I would have cited you.”
That is really the underlying cause of my question. To the best of my knowledge, we are in uncharted waters here and have no agency guidance.

A follow up on DOT training record requirements:
TRAINING RECORDS
Training records must be kept by the hazmat employer for each hazmat
employee, and must include the following:
• the hazmat employee’s name;
• the completion date of the most recent training;
• training materials used (copy, description, or location);
• the name and address of the hazmat trainer; and
• certification that the hazmat employee has been trained and tested.
Training records must be retained for each hazmat employee for three
years from the date of the last training, and for 90 days after the
employee leaves.
Neal,
Similar to Monique, I've made a "self certification" form in the past listing the title of the seminar and date attended. I've based this on our State regulators that do on-line webinars and encourage downloading and using their self certification
form.
However, that might not work for everything, especially DOT since it is my understanding that DOT training requires documented passing an examination/ quiz.
Hi Neal,
I have made a list of attendees and I signed to certify that they were
in attendance and keep it with the materials presented in place of the
normal attendance sheet that I would have the attendees sign.
Best,
