What’s more, if you have tight curricula, you can choose a short Workshop program which lasts from 9 to 16 of November 2017. Please, pay attention that the prices for a short program are also reduced.
Also you can apply for online participation and solve all the contests remotely.
This time you’ll see some new features:
1)Sometimes the coaches and ACM-ICPC seniors will be present during the upsolving, so you can ask them questions. (Special thanks to the guys who give us feedback about our Workshops!)
2) There will be organized one lecture for the division A, which will be interesting for the strongest participants.
In addition to contests, analyses, and lectures, you’ll enjoy a sightseeing tour in Moscow and events organized by our volunteers! ;)
