Hi @Michael Shkapin! The first day of the bootcamp is the most busy day, and there will be no recording of the day. All tho there are a short presentation in the beginning of every day, the rest will happen in person, face-to-face, in the classroom. If there is no way you can make it, you could try to follow the documentation you will be given and complete the tasks at home. But it is not recommend. Is it the first half or the second half you will not be able to attend?

Hi Michael,

As Sofie said the first half of the first day is critical with the most information around why you are attending the bootcamp and the skills you will be learning. Let’s talk Monday and see what we can do. You can always catch up on the coursework outside of class.

Free parking in the red parking lot and parking garage. You are allowed to park in any unreserved parking spots, levels 4-10 in the garage. Please be aware the yellow parking lot closest to the building is for visitors/retail shoppers only. Please be aware the Cohesion app currently does not work for entrance to the garage - grab a ticket when entering and you will not be charged when you exit. If you use a key fob to scan into the garage, make sure to scan while exiting to avoid issues with access.
