The in-person training will take place in the John Lewis Student Center. There is visitor parking (including accessible spaces) and a Trolley/Stinger stop right outside the venue. There is an accessible entrance to the first floor. All trainings take place on the second or third floor and there are elevators going to each level. The training rooms are wheelchair-accessible, but please indicate on your registration if you use a wheelchair or other mobility aid so that we can arrange the room accordingly.
