Stanford Online is a website offering 140+ free online courses taught by Stanford faculty to lifelong learners worldwide. The site offers both scheduled and self-paced courses categorised into 10 subject areas and offered through a number of different platforms, including Coursera, NovoEd and Stanford’s own open-source platform, Stanford OpenEdX. Depending on the course format, courses include lecture videos, interactive exercises and quizzes, assignments and exams. Some courses offer a statement of accomplishment on completion of the course.

Users can search by topic, platform and course status (In session, Upcoming, Self-paced etc). Students access the courses via the course page which generally gives a course overview, syllabus, instructor bio and a FAQ section.

No registration is required to use the website, although users will have to register on the platform hosting the course. Stanford Online open courses do not award degrees.

It is worth adding (or highlighting) that some of the courses are only available through Stanford's own in-house version of edX so potential students should check out this portal rather than relying on finding the courses on Coursera etc. A number of courses previously offered elsewhere have migrated to the OpenEdX platform.
