Class Registration Process
Registrations are managed through the Harvard Training Portal, which requires a Harvard ID (HUID). Those members of the extensive HMS community who do not currently have HUIDs - such as employees at affiliate hospitals, or collaborators from other institutions - may self-register for one as a "Harvard Sponsored Role” with their faculty member's sponsorship. This form may take several days to process, please visit this page for details: https://it.hms.harvard.edu/our-services/accounts-and-user-access/person-interest-poi
