To ensure a secure and seamless experience, all virtual session links for the 2026 PDI Global will be distributed strictly via email. Registrants will receive their initial access email, containing unique links to join the sessions, 3 days prior to the start of the event. This will be sent directly to the registered DoW email address provided during sign-up. To help keep these links easily accessible, a final reminder email containing the same join links will be broadcast one day prior to the event AND one hour prior to event. Please note that, for security reasons, session links will never be posted publicly on this landing page. If you do not see the access emails in your primary inbox during these timeframes, please check your organization's spam, junk, or quarantine folders. If you still have not received your links by one day prior to the event, please contact our support desk immediately for assistance.
We can't wait to see you virtually for an incredible 2026 PDI Global!
