General considerations

  • It is necessary for every participant to bring their own laptop. There is a possibility of borrowing equipment, but they’re highly coveted by ITAM’s teachers and students who have priority for their courses.
  • In Mexico, the electrical outlets used are of the flat plug type, which is the North American standard. However, southern countries use the European standard of round connectors. We ask you to bring your own adapters because each country uses their own specifications and it won’t be easy to find particular adapters in Mexico.
  • The classrooms where the workshops will be taught have carpets, so it won’t be allowed to enter with food and drinks. Only water and coffee may be carried if in a sealed cup to prevent spilling.
  • The workshops have a limited capacity of between 30 and 40 people so please be prepared and enroll before they are full.
  • The workshops take between 12 and 16 hours of in-person dictation by the responsible professors.
  • ELI-CLEI attendance certificates will be awarded.
  • It isn’t possible to pay for the workshops with cash, but we’re looking into placing a payment terminal on the registration desk.

What is it about?

The Latin American School of Informatics (ELI) is an evolution of the tutorials offered at all CLEIs. These tutorials will begin to be formalized in 2022, and the third edition, to be held in parallel with CLEI 2026, aims to offer a choice of courses of interest to undergraduate, graduate, and professional students. Course proposals will be similar to those for conference papers; that is, they will be evaluated by an academic committee that will select a set of courses. The topics planned for the ELI cover all areas of computer science and engineering.
