Texas HB 3834 Cybersecurity & AI Training Requirements
Texas HB 3834 and HB 3512 require annual cybersecurity and AI awareness training for covered public employees.
Texas HB 3834 requires many state agency, local government, and contractor personnel who use a computer for at least 25 percent of their duties to finish Department of Information Resources-approved cybersecurity awareness training every year and certify completion by August 31. School districts generally obligate only the cybersecurity coordinator. Effective September 1, 2025, HB 3512 added a second annual DIR-certified AI awareness course for the same population. Huntress says its Managed SAT library, plus a tracked DIR YouTube AI video, can satisfy both requirements.
- HB 3834 mandates yearly DIR-approved cybersecurity training for many Texas public employees and contractors.
- HB 3512 added annual AI awareness training for the same people starting September 1, 2025.
- Most school districts require only the cybersecurity coordinator to complete the training.
- Certified vendor programs expire every August 31 and must be renewed.
- Huntress says Managed SAT can track both the cyber course and DIR's AI video.
