  • Dear organizers, 

    I registered for the xTB workshop, but I have not received the Zoom link.

    How can I attend?

    Best regards, 

    Dusan

    • Unfortunately the number of seats was limited to 100. The selected users were picked by "first come, first served" so everyone selected received an email with the ZOOM link.

      The recordings will be made available later.

  • Hi,

    I am sure that I've filled the form before it was full (literally in the first 10 mins when I received it), however I didn't get link to the workshop event. Can you send me?

     

  • Honest to say it was an fantastic event to learn about Comp. Chemistry and it's subtopics and very insightful Unfortunately, I couldn't attend some of them due to my personal situation(it's complicated and hard to explain), but it was an absolutely wonderful school thanks for accepting me as a participant.

  • Dear Organizers,

     

    I have filled the form to attend the workshop but I didn't receive any confirmation.

     

    Will it be at least recorded and other lectures?

     

    Best

    • Dear Ahmed,

      Unfortunately, the attendence of the workshop had to be limited to 100 participants and therefore, only the first 100 people who filled the form for the attendence were selected. 
      The workshop will be recorded and made available for registered participants of the winterschool.

      Best wishes,
      Lea

    • Dear M'hamdi,

      The zoom link was sent directly to the people registered for the workshop. Unfortunately, we had to limit attendance to 100 participants, so the first 100 people to fill out the registration form were chose for the workshop. A recording will be made available after the winterschool to registered participants. 

      Best wishes,
      Lea
