Calculate Service for Distinct Techs

Hello - I'm trying to calculate the average service for technicians trained by specific trainers.  My data looks like this:

I can calcuate service as follows:

 

Service Months = DIVIDE (Today() - Tech Hire Date, 30)

 

To calculate the average for each trainer (of their respective trainees), I can sum the service months and divide by the number of distinct techs.  My issue is that since I have the same technicians for for multiple dates, the service is counted multiple times.  I need to sum the service months for distinct techs.  Is there a way to do that?

 

Here's the output I want:

 

Trainer NameTrainer EE NumberNumber of Trainees (Technicians)Average length of service of technicians (trainees) in MONTHS
Trainer 1148780                                                  254
Trainer 2556677                                                  216

 

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

@ConnieMaldonado , You can have measure like this

sumx(summarize(Table, Table[Tech Name],[Tech Hire Date]), datediff([Tech Hire Date], today(),DAY)/30)

You can have

Averagex(summarize(Table, Table[Tech Name],[Tech Hire Date]), datediff([Tech Hire Date], today(),DAY)/30)

 

or use min of hire date

sumx(summarize(Table, Table[Tech Name], "_TechHireDate",Min([Tech Hire Date])), datediff([_TechHireDate], today(),DAY)/30)
