If your computer is not up to the task for the PDP Online Seminars,
you may choose one of the other methods of accruing PDP Hours from
the distance learning options. Unfortunately,
the PDP program cannot lend or provide computer hardware or software
for participation in the distance learning options. The technical
support provided by the PDP program is limited to difficulties accessing
course materials. For questions, please refer to our Frequently
Asked Questions page.
