This workshop, as with all Mitacs Step workshops,
is free for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. However, the
preauthorization of a valid credit card is required as part of the
registration process. A $50 penalty will be applied to all late
cancellations (cancellations that are not made 5 days or more before the
workshop date), no shows, or incomplete attendance. These penalties are
only charged after the completion of a workshop and no charges are ever
made to interns who participate in full.
