FAQ

Why can I only attend one session?

We recognize that many of you identify as researchers and practitioners, but we are choosing to maximize our time and programming by hosting two workshops on April 3. Please choose the session that you believe best fits your interest. The hosted lunch is a great time to mix and mingle across the workshops.

Is this only for folks in the Research Triangle Region?

No! We welcome and encourage participants from anywhere in the NCA5 Southeast Region.

Can you cover my travel?

Unfortunately, we do not have funding to support participant travel.

Where should I park?

Great question! As we know, parking on college campuses is at a premium. We will be holding this meeting right in the heart of Spring Semester on a busy campus. There are two paid visitor lots in walking distance to Talley Student Union for $15/day. There are free park and ride lots (need to claim free permit). If you’re in the Raleigh area we encourage carpooling or using the GoRaleigh or Wolfline buses (both free of charge).

I have a question you haven’t answered!
