***For participants located outside of the U.S.: We encourage you to certify as a PPA. If you would like to receive a physical certificate and name badge, you will be responsible for covering the shipping costs. Shipping to Canada is typically around $20, while costs for other countries will vary depending on the destination. Alternatively, we can ship your certificate and badge to a U.S. address of a friend, family member, or other contact for free.

Good luck!
