It had been a great learning experience attending PMXPO- 2018. All those who contributed to make it successful earned a well deserved Congratulation .
However, there are few anomalies, which I wanted to share with my colleagues regarding each session certificate.
For those who attended the PMXPO or any virtual conference by PMI for the first time should know that PMI awards an attendance certificate which for small conferences is delivered to your "briefcase or Inbox" during the session but for higher attendance conferences it usually take 1-2 days. To access and download these certificates you can go to the event page (On demand) and click profile and than click the small chat button to download your certificate.
The problem here is the subject written on three of the certificates is either incomplete or incorrect. Here what is written:
1."Opening Remarks & Keynote Address: The Simpsons: There’s no ’I’ in ’Innovation’ (oh wait, there’s". (Incomplete Subject)
2. "CPE: Session 2: Creative Thinking: Engaging Your Stakeholders, Improving Your R". (Incomplete Subject)
3. "Session 3: 2018 Pulse of the Professionfi: Success in Disruptive Times: Highlights from" (Spelling mistake and Incomplete Subject)
You can send a copies of these certificate (e-mail) to PMI for correction. Saving Changes...

I've always received certificate, yet, never checked the full name for typos (It is no big deal I think) but I will be vigilant moving forward.
On another note, for PMXPO2018, my certificate were awarded after the show so I had to go to the on demand, log in and go to my breif case like Najam mentioned so if anything attend a session, he / she will find a certificate in their briefcase. Saving Changes...

Thumbs up Najam
I didn't realized that they were certificates. Thanks for the post, Najam
@ Sante. Once you got your profile in PMXPO-2018 there are 3 icons at the top. First one is "About Me" the second icon is "Communication Center" with a chat sign, just click on it and you will see your certificates. Saving Changes...
I see the link Najam, but nothing downloads or pops up. I'm not really after the certificates, more interested in their process, which seems way too complicated and issue prone. Thanks :-) Saving Changes...
I do understand that it is not much publicized much by PMI but it's not bad to have a few certificates, even if you really don't want to display it on wall. In conferences with small number of attendees, it usually pops up as a message on the right side of screen with a cling sound and you get notified but for this event the number of attendees were beyond 35,000 and that was the reason the certificates were delivered the next day and a lot of people missed on that.
If you don't see the certificates please write a one line email to support center but do keep this in mind that you need to check the same chat icon after 3-4 days as PMI don't send it to your usual email address. Saving Changes...
