PWP Training

Hour-long lunchtime sessions called Populating PWPs will be run for PWP owners who will be editing their own PWPs and for administrators who will be populating PWPs on behalf of others. This training will explain the elements of a PWP and how to set up content in each element. It will cover basic editing of text, hyperlinks, and how to add images.
