- The course content was comprehensive and extremely
informative. It was more informative than what I expected for an
"on-line course", and having an actual lecturer speak the slides
in the presentation, gave me an opportunity to retain more of
the information.
I just wish the test wasn't so hard!! :)

- The instructor lead training that I received from
hipaatraining.net is the most in depth training that I have ever
received. The training combined an experienced instructor with
great training materials to clarify what can be complex
information. I will use hipaatraining.net to certified all of my
privacy and security team.

- My Instructor for the classroom sessions was very
knowledgeable about all aspects of HIPAA Privacy and Security
and was able to provide extremely detailed coverage of the
course materials. He took the time to provide relevant examples
and to discuss the course content as it related specifically to
our business. In addition, the course manual, resource CD and
test preparation software provided a comprehensive approach to
exam preparation and will continue to be useful resources back
on the job.

- I wanted to take a few minutes and thank you for the quality
product from the Supremus Group. I had recently checked with some
friends in the healthcare industry about HIPAA certifications and
they pointed me to your website
http://www.hipaatraining.net .
After spending some time on the website, I decided to purchase the
Online Anytime Training and associated manual for the Certified
HIPAA Security Expert program (CHSE). Well, I have to admit that I
was a bit anxious going forward with this computer based training,
but as soon as I received it I was pleasantly surprised!
The online training is broken into real-world modules and chapters
that parallel exactly what is being taught in the book. By using
the combination of the two, I was able to pass my CHSE test on the
very first attempt.
I strongly recommend this course material to anyone who wants to
prepare for the certification and wants to enhance their knowledge
in the area of HIPAA security. I feel that I am now able to better
contribute to corporate security policies, access control systems,
and many documented procedures in a more-comprehensive manner
after my training.
Thank You Bob and Supremus!!

guidelines given have been greatly helpful
Thank you so much for all the support and guidelines.

Strengths of the course: The instructor was the main strength of the
course, he really knew the material very well and was extremely confident in his
delivery. The material covered a wide range of topics but each was very
comprehensive.
Testimonial: The course was very well organized and we always stayed focused on the material.
The instructor, is an expert in this field and presented the material very
effectively. The course reinforced the subject matter that I had experience and
knowledge in but also allowed for a great deal of new information that I will be
able to use at any company in the healthcare field and has prepared me to help
lead our company to become HIPAA Privacy and Security compliant.
Richard Hobbs

- Instructor used real
examples with student questions to illustrate HIPAA breaches
versus just bad business practices or versus violations of some
other privacy statute. He was obviously knowledgeable and
experienced in the subject. I trust his answers, believe his
answers to be backed by the statute, and have relayed that trust
to the operational chain of command at my company. I have resolved
three common and recurring issues in our company with this
training session.
Allen Gann

- I feel the instructor was very knowledgeable and
had vast experiences to relate to our questions. He didn't just provide the

and how to implement the standards. He provided the group a great understand
of the privacy and security issues related to HIPAA.

Strengths of the course: Flexibility of the online format, instructor
was highly knowledgeable in HIPAA and in all InfoSec areas
The course allowed me to become very well equipped to serve in the capacity of
the privacy and security officer role to protect our PHI and ensure our
compliance with HIPAA regulations. The one-on-one instruction permitted the
format and pace of the course to be tailored to my needs. The course materials
were very good in they provided an introduction to the broad concepts—tying
them together—then went into more detailed information. I would recommend this
class and Instructor to anyone needing HIPAA training. Although the website
used to deliver the training experienced some glitches one day, we worked
through the minor annoyance. The benefits of the one-on-one training greatly
outweighed the glitches and would recommend it.

Strengths of the course: Instructor was able to provide examples from his

Security and offer helpful tips. Also, the training materials will be good
reference materials as well.
Testimonial: I was searching for a HIPAA training course that would give me
the basics for HIPAA Administration and Security to enable to implement such a
program at my organization. I found that with the training offered by Supremus
Group with its practical and knowledgeable instructor and useful course
materials I can use as a reference. I now will be able to create an HIPAA
policy plus corresponding procedures.

Instructor is the expert in the field of HIPAA compliance. His
experience in establishing benchmarks for HIPAA policy and

lengthy HIPAA legal actions.

Instructor was very accommodating in our training session. I had
several situation-specific questions that required some research
on his part. He did this research and was able to answer my
questions. He allowed me to interrupt the training module with
thoughts and questions and did not get irritated. He constantly
sought feedback to ensure that he was moving at a pace that I
was comfortable with and that I understood what we were
reviewing.

Strengths of the course: Provided background on the topic
as well as outlined how HIPAA/privacy/security affects our
company. Also, Instructor made the topic, with its unfamiliar
terminology, easy to follow and understand.
I found this course to be extremely valuable, as I was
previously unfamiliar with the details regarding HIPAA
regulations and now feel confident in discussing HIPAA and how
the rules apply to our organization (as well as others). The
onsite training Instructor provided was geared toward our
operations, which was more helpful than providing hypothetical
examples. He is also very knowledgeable on the topic and
provided valuable resources that are able to reference now that
the class has concluded. I would recommend this course to other
organizations.

The training provided by Chris Apgar was thorough, and tailored
to our company’s needs. Chris was willing to respond to
questions about specific client situations and provide the legal
reasoning behind his assessment. He also brought the legislation
“to life” through examples of real companies and their
challenges. The sessions provided by Chris were interactive and
engaging, far more than anyone expected.
Tara Piazza

We have several clients who are either HIPAA covered or are a
hybrid of HIPAA and non-HIPAA covered entities. I thought the
presentation stimulated very useful internal discussion. The
training will help our company articulate a set of ethics and
guidelines as we work with our clients and their medical data.
In general, I thought the information was very useful in the
area of privacy and security.
