Traliant Announces AI and HIPAA Workplace Training Courses

New York, NY (USA), September 2024 - Traliant, an innovator in online compliance training, has announced two new courses to its training suite, AI in the Workplace. They are entitled Acceptable Use of Generative AI Tools and HIPAA Training for the Workplace. The new courses address two of the most influential topics in technology and healthcare: artificial intelligence (AI) and patient data.

Industries worldwide are being transformed by the proliferation of AI, which brings new opportunities, but also challenges, for employers such as ethical considerations, potential biases, and cybersecurity risks. Acceptable AI use policies and effective AI training are key to ensuring that employees use AI ethically and responsibly, while also minimizing associated risks.

Traliant's new AI in the Workplace training explores the risks and benefits of using generative AI (GenAI) at work with real-life examples and realistic workplace scenarios. Employees learn the relevant questions they need to ask before using GenAI tools and how to use AI tools ethically in a workplace setting.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) plays a vital role in outlining the responsibilities of organizations (such as healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses) to safeguard the privacy and security of protected health information (PHI).

Traliant's new HIPAA training is designed for employees of covered entities and business associates and explains how to protect PHI under HIPAA's privacy and security rules, as well as the HITECH Act and Texas-specific rules under the Texas Medical Practice Act (TMPA).

"No matter the industry, equipping employees with the knowledge and skills to navigate AI's complexities and data-privacy best practices helps cultivate a culture of compliance and trust," said Michael Johnson, Chief Strategy Officer at Traliant. "With a solid understanding of AI and data privacy rights, employees can make more informed decisions, use AI and digital healthcare tools wisely and seize opportunities that drive organizational growth and success."

All of Traliant's interactive training courses are designed by the company's in-house team of legal experts to help organizations meet evolving laws and regulations, as well as the challenges of today's workplace.
