Receive College Credits for HIPAA Academy Programs
ITCAP, (www.ITCAP.com) a nationally recognized program that offers college credit for corporate training, has collaborated with HIPAA Academy to offer college credits for HIPAA Academy programs. The partnership was forged to address the growing number of healthcare industry workers that need training to meet the complex requirements of this legislation. Many organizations quickly are exhausted of the training budgets and employees are deprived of valuable training. This program also allows companies to maximize tax incentives and benefits related to employee educational assistance benefits. Through this nationwide program, college credit can be earned by students who complete appropriate coursework and exams, and these credits can apply to degrees or professional recertification requirements. HIPAA Academy opens new learning management and workforce development possibilities for students and employers via the strategic use of company educational assistance funds in paying for growth-essential training. The college credits are offered through Pima Community College (PCC), AZ. PCC is the one the largest and most renowned public community colleges in the nation, with an annual enrollment of more than 83,000 students in credit course programs and 18,000 students in non-credit courses. PCC is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
The Department of Labor lists ITCAP as a strategic partner on its "America's Learning Xchange" (ALX) website, the Department of Commerce has included ITCAP on its "Go for IT!" website providing links to IT workforce training solution providers, and the Department of Education acknowledged ITCAP as an innovative model in skills-based educational reform.
