The HealthCare Information Security and Privacy Practitioner (HCISPP) is the ideal certification for those with the core knowledge and experience needed to implement, manage or assess the appropriate security and privacy controls of a healthcare organization.
Your course package is designed to provide maximum learning and convenience. This is included in the price of your course:
Your expert instructor will get you ready for the following exam and certification, which are not included in your course package.
You´ll have the perfect starting point for your training with these prerequisites:
Candidates must have a minimum of two years cumulative paid work experience in one or more knowledge areas of the HCISPP Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) that includes security, compliance and privacy. Legal experience may be substituted for compliance and information management experience may be substituted for privacy. Of the two years of experience, one of those years must be in the healthcare industry.
Don't have the necessary experience?
If you don't yet have the necessary experience, you can still take this course but won't achieve the HCISPP certification. Instead, (ISC)² will grant you “Associate of (ISC)²” status after you pass your HCISPP examination.
Using our engaging learning methodology including a variety of tools, we’ll cover the entire curriculum.
