Welcome to the PPN Learn support document page. This support page is for users of the PPN Learn platform. As we expand features, we will add new support documents for commonly asked questions. If you are not able to find an answer to your question, please contact us and we will be happy to support you.

PPN Learn has three enrollment options for content on the site.

Guest enrollment

Content set to guest enrollment does not require authentication to view. Example.

Self enrollment (Student)

Content set to self-enrollment does require login. Click continue to login through OpenPPN and enroll yourself. You do not need to contact anyone to be added to the content. This option is used primarily for modules and courses to allow you to track your progress and to allow content creators to gauge interest.

Manual Enrollment

Content set to manual enrollment requires that the email associated with your Learn profile has been added to the participant list for the course or other content. Once you confirm you have been added to the participant list, you may click continue, login with OpenPPN and access the content. If you need help getting added to the participant list, please contact us.

How to use OpenPPN Single Sign-On

OpenPPN is a single sign-on (SSO) app that allows users to create a single account to access all PPN services (Learn, Resource Central, Continuing Education, Analytics, etc.) To use OpenPPN SSO to sign into a platform, click on the sign in link for the platform and you will be presented with the sign in page below.

OpenPPN SSO Local Account

An OpenPPN SSO Local account is for users that do not have a PPN Staff account and do not want to share Google or Microsoft sign in information to access PPN services. See option six below to learn more about creating an account.

Microsoft for Work

Users with a Microsoft account at work may use this option to login. This login requires the workplace to allow for the account to be used for single sign on applications. Hint: If this option does not work, try option six below and create a OpenPPN SSO local account using your Microsoft email. You will need to create a password for your new OpenPPN SSO local account.

Microsoft Personal

This option is only for Microsoft accounts for personal use (@live.com; @outlook.com, @msn.com, @hotmail.com) and not for work or school accounts. For work or school accounts, please use one of the other options provided.

Google

Users may use a Google account (@gmail.com or Workspace domain) to sign into OpenPPN.  

PPN Staff

This sign in option is for users with a PPN email account (@pedspandemicnetwork.org) or users who collaborate directly with the PPN. 

How do I know if I have a PPN Staff account?

Please submit a support request and we will help you verify your account. Alternatively you may use one of the other sign in options on this page.
