[[File:Page-of-training1.jpg|left|thumb|300px|Page of Training.]]
Pages of Training are artifacts dropped by monsters and chests in the dungeon. They have no function in of themselves, but five Pages can be combined into a [[Tome of Training]]. These tomes, plus gold, are required for most [[artisan]] [[train]]ing.
Pages of Training are very useful, since upgraded Artisans learn many new recipes and other skills of great use for your character. Both the [[Blacksmith]] and the [[Jeweler]] (as well as the [[Mystic]] before she was removed), require Tomes of Training for their upgrades, and since higher level upgrades require multiple Tomes (as many as 10 tomes per upgrade, with multiple upgrades per full level), players can expect to collect thousands of Pages of Training over their Diablo 3 careers.

==Collecting and Redeeming==
That said, since Artisans are accessed by account, rather than by character, every Diablo III player can expect to max out all of their Artisans eventually. Also, since brand new characters have full access to Artisans and shared gold, they can make any recipe at all, given enough materials and gold. This will make self-twinking very easy in Diablo III, as a new character can instantly and cheaply make items with the Blacksmith that hugely outperform anything they might find in the dungeons, and that put them well above the difficulty curve. Players who want any challenge in the early going will need to refrain from twinking or using Artisans.
