Once your access is approved and assigned by the data custodians you will be contacted by the training department to attend a training session. There is no published schedule of classes.

Once you have attended PeopleSoft training, you will receive your User ID and password. You use this to log in to the system at http://www.stonybrook.edu/psadmin. To access the system from home you must be connected to Stony Brook's Virtual Private Network (VPN).
