Mr_Jordy Try using JSON like below for your date column formatting: 

 

{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
  "elmType": "div",
  "txtContent": "[$DateTrainingCompleted.displayValue]",
  "style": {
    "background-color": "=if(Number([$DateTrainingCompleted]) == 0 , '', if([$DateTrainingCompleted] < addDays(@now, -365), 'red', if([$DateTrainingCompleted] < addDays(@now, -335), 'yellow', if([$DateTrainingCompleted] <= @now, 'green', ''))))",
    "padding-left": "14px",
    "color": "=if(Number([$DateTrainingCompleted]) == 0, '', 'white')"
  }
}

 

Where DateTrainingCompleted is the internal name of your column. You can get the internal name of your column by following this article: How to find the Internal name of columns in SharePoint Online?

 

You can also use the @currentField instead of [$DateTrainingCompleted] in the JSON.

 

Reference: SharePoint JSON formatting: Check if date & time column is blank/empty
