How do I find out what professional and career development courses are available in addition to those offered by L&D?
The Training Opportunities Guide is a quarterly print publication distributed via ID mail to staff, and has a comprehensive listing of courses and workshops offered by training providers on the main campus. The Guide is also posted in Axess on the Stanford Training and Registration System (STARS) tab.

How do I register for professional development classes offered by L&D?
Each course has a course code; e.g., TOD-0100 that you use to enroll. Login to Axess, click the STARS (Training) tab, and enter the course code in the Search Catalog field. The name of the course is listed, then click Continue. All details about the course are shown; click Enroll. You'll get a confirmation email.

How can I request training just for my department?
