Overview
Effective April 1, 2023, CITI Program will offer a new HIPAA-focused series containing a set of courses to meet your training needs. The existing Health Privacy (HIPAA) course will be moved into this new series and will reflect some exciting additional changes. We are also announcing the launch of a new HIPAA for Healthcare Professionals course, which will join this new series later in the Spring.
We are separating our growing body of HIPAA-related modules from the current Information Privacy & Security (IPS) series as part of our commitment to expand peer-reviewed, expert-developed content. These changes enable us to expand the new HIPAA series and add new content offerings to the IPS series.
Beginning on April 1st, when renewing your organization’s subscription you will be invoiced for the new HIPAA series add-on if currently utilizing modules from the HIPAA course.
The new HIPAA series will include three role-based courses:
- HIPAA for Healthcare Professionals
- HIPAA for Education and Research
- HIPAA for Marketing and Fundraising Professionals
The updated IPS series will include an additional five webinars:
- Data Management and Security for Student Researchers: An Overview
- FERPA and Online Learning in the Time of COVID-19
- Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Studies
- Partnering with Technology Companies
- Leveraging IT Insight in IRB Review
