PPXX Online Guidance 

OVERVIEW
Welcome to PPXX Online which is powered by Teachable, an online platform where all conference materials are contained.  With your Teachable account, you will be able to login and view the conference materials for 30-days from the launch date.

  • school = conference; course = PPXX session; lectures = PPXX presentation.
