Stanford Orientation, Benefits, etc
Am I Faculty or Staff? Persons holding the title of Instructor are Stanford University staff
employees; they are not members of the Professoriate (i.e., the Academic Council or the
Medical Center Line), or the Academic Staff, or the Clinician/Educator line. The rank of
Instructor was created to acknowledge individuals who demonstrate interest in and potential
for a successful academic career in investigation, teaching, and clinical care (as
applicable), and to aid in the transition from training to a path that may lead to a faculty
career in academic medicine, the academic title and classification of Instructor has been
established.
Visit the new hire website at http://newhire.stanford.edu/index.html
Sign up for a New Staff Orientation: http://loe.stanford.edu/newemployees.html#orientation
Sign up for Benefits: the University’s Benefits website includes information on signing up
for health benefits (you must sign up within thirty days of your start date at the University
as a benefited employee – including if you are appointed as Acting faculty). Enrollment
can be done online or by phone and requires your Stanford ID and PIN.

Stanford ID – see your Stanford ID card and use the last 8 digits, or request this
number from your Human Resources administrator.

PIN – your temporary PIN is the month and year of your birth (MMYYYY). Otherwise
it is the PIN you selected the first time you called the Benefits office or logged in on
their website.

Dual career resources – Many Stanford faculty members have spouses or partners with
professional positions in higher education or in other fields. The university offers assistance
to spouses or partners of faculty recruits and new and current faculty in finding positions at
Stanford or elsewhere in the Bay Area. This assistance may include meeting with the
faculty member, spouse or partner; referring the individual to others at the university for
assistance; and providing information on websites and other resources for finding open
positions.
