Frequently asked questions

Is parking available?

No. But we do recommend taking the subway. Take the green line's 'B' train to "Boston University Central". More info: https://www.bu.edu/lernet/pathways/direct.html

Is food provided?

Yes! We will supply lunch at the conference. But with this being Boston, there are a lot of other options around the venue. We'll only take a 1 hour break for lunch, and hope you don't miss the great content!

Is there a room block for hotels?

We have partnered with Boston University to offer private dorm rooms on campus at a cost of only $118 per night. To reserve a room for yourself, contact Boston University here:

That is Logan Airport in Boston! It is just 6-8 miles from the conference venue. You can use a ride share or public transportation to get to the conference from the airport. https://www.bu.edu/lernet/pathways/direct.html
