NIH training fellowships have always included things like that -- remember the "scientific ethics" craze of the mid 90's? There's no accountability or specific requirements and programs might (or might not) hold a two hour group program once a year. I'd be astonished if these provisions have any practical effect at all, except maybe getting grad students a few more free pizzas.
