System definition file utility program (DFHCSDUP)
The CICS® system definition utility program, DFHCSDUP, is a component of resource definition online (RDO). DFHCSDUP is an offline utility program that allows you to read from and write to a CICS system definition (CSD) file, either while CICS is running or while it is inactive.

You can use the DFHCSDUP program to:

ADD a group to the end of a named list in a CSD file
ALTER attributes of an existing resource definition
APPEND a group list from one CSD file to a group list in another, or in the same, CSD file
COPY all of the resource definitions in one group or several generically named groups to another group or several other generically named groups in the same, or in a different, CSD file
DEFINE a single resource, or a group of resources, on the CSD
DELETE from the CSD a single resource definition, all of the resource definitions in a group, or all of the group names in a list
EXTRACT data from the CSD and pass it to a user program for processing
INITIALIZE a new CSD file, and add to it CICS-supplied resource definitions
LIST selected resource definitions, groups, and lists
MIGRATE the contents of a table from a CICS load library to a CSD file
LIST a specific APAR
REMOVE a single group from a list on the CSD file
SCAN all IBM®-supplied groups and user defined groups for a resource. The definition of the matched resource in an IBM supplied group is compared to the definition(s) of the corresponding matched resource in the user groups.
SERVICE a CSD file when necessary
UPGRADE the CICS-supplied resource definitions in a primary CSD file for a new release of CICS
VERIFY a CSD file by removing internal locks on groups and lists.

but it's not likely i'll have access to the RDO function or the CSD file.

I was hoping there would be a IBM utility program that I could run and it list out all PPTs for a CICS regions.

Maybe I'm in the wrong forum is there one for beginners?
