Certification

HITRUST Certified CSF Practitioners are required to take annual refresher training for the consecutive two years following the original certification date to keep their certification current. Refresher training is due no later than the end of the month that corresponds with the Practitioner’s last certification anniversary date. Failure to complete refresher training within the allowed timeframe will result in loss of the certification and will require attendance at the Academy’s full onsite training course to recertify.

HITRUST Certified CSF Practitioners are also required to take the Certified CSF Practitioner Course every three years from the initial certification date to keep current.
