HITRUST Domain 13: Education, Training and Awareness Policy Template

Domain 13 covers the security awareness and training program: what every workforce member has to complete, what role-based training looks like for higher-risk positions, how phishing simulations are run, and how completion gets tracked and enforced.

Why not just use a free generic template? Free HITRUST templates are a reasonable starting shape, and we point people to good ones on our Free Resources page. What they don't have is what this policy is built around: every one of its 40 control requirement statements carries a [BUID Reference] marker traceable to a specific HITRUST requirement, plus a HITRUST ↔ HIPAA ↔ NIST ↔ ISO 27001 crosswalk. Those are the two things that actually save time in front of an assessor.
