Professional education in STAMP-based methods is offered separately from the free workshop and tutorials. The online classes are full of hands-on exercises and are designed for new and experienced professionals who want to build their skills. They give you enough to start applying the methods to your own systems.
STPA Practitioner Certificate
The certificate requires completing a small project and passing a formal evaluation against established criteria. That takes more in-depth training and evaluation than the MIT STAMP Workshop or the tutorials provide.
Choosing where to start
If you're still deciding whether STPA is right for you, or you'd like something more basic than a class, the free tutorials and workshop are a good place to start. The getting started page lists more options.
Free tutorials and workshop
Short introductions to the core concepts, so you can follow workshop talks and decide whether the methods suit your work.
Professional classes
Structured practice and guidance aimed at producing skilled practitioners, with certification for those who want it.
