Three compliants are mentioned:
(1) training is insufficient,
(2) reference materials unhelpful, and
(3) the inordinate amount of time involved in switching from the old system to the new

These elements should be parallel.
A/B- (1) is a clause (both subject & verb present); (2) noun; (3) noun phrase
D - (1) is a clause; (2) noun phrase; (3) clause
E- (1) is a noun; (2) noun; (3) noun clause

Only C has all three elements in noun form. IMO C
