These sessions, held from 12:00 to 1:00 P.M and led by knowledgeable ITSS staff, are intended to meet the needs of Stanford staff, but are open to everyone, including faculty and students. No registration is required – come by and learn something new! Bring your lunch! Bring your questions! Drinks and cookies provided.

Winter Tech Express sessions will be held in Turing Auditorium (Room 111 of Polya Hall).

The success of these sessions depends on you! Questions from attendees are strongly encouraged. Topics are announced in advance through the techexpress mailing list and on this web page.
