Level 1: HIPAA & Privacy - General Awareness
This module is required for all new workforce members and all members due for annual renewal.
If you are involved in human subject research, you only need to complete Research & Information Privacy instead of this module (HIPAA & Privacy General Awareness) to be in compliance with Privacy Office requirements. You are not required to complete both modules.
Instructions
Read the information on each slide. Press the NEXT (or BACK) button at the top of each frame to proceed
from slide to slide.
There are questions to answer throughout the module. If you select correct answers, the slides
will proceed automatically. If you select an incorrect answer you will be
given another chance to respond. You cannot proceed until you have answered
the questions correctly. Your successful completion of the training is recorded
electronically for tracking.
This training takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and must be finished in
one sitting. If you close the window before reaching the end, you will need
to begin again. Please do not close the window until you see the Certificate
of Completion, which appears at the end, after the registration page.
Register At the End
Use either your UF ID# or a pseudo-number to register your completion.
If you have a UF ID#, please use it, and please
enter it correctly.
If you have not been assigned a UFID, use ####-0000, where
the first 4 digits are a set of numbers that means something to you, such as part of a
phone#, address, zip code, or Social Security #. Please do not use all 0's!!!
If you have a UF ID# but can't remember it, go to: What's My UFID?
Browsers and Pop-Up Blockers
The training is best accessed through Internet Explorer, but will also work with other common browsers. It can work with MacIntosh systems, but only with certain browsers common to Mac's. In general, multiple people use the program daily without problems, so if you have difficulties, please let us know.
The training module appears as a pop-up box. If you click below
on Begin Research and Privacy and get sent back to this page, you may have
a "Pop-Up Blocker" installed. Disable the blocker or use a different computer
that allows pop-ups from this page. Speak to your computer support person,
if necessary, for help.
In general, 50 to 100 people use the program daily without problems, so if you have difficulties, please let us know.
Don't forget to sign your Confidentiality Statement when you finish the training! Click on the menu to your left.
Thank you for your participation. If you have any questions, please read this entire page first. Then, if you don't find the answer you need, contact Everall Peele, HIPAA Training Coordinator (epeele@ufl.edu).
