The “eduroam” network will also be operational for those delegates set up by their home universities.

Audio-Visual Equipment
Presentation equipment in Ryerson meeting rooms is outfitted with PC computers loaded with Windows and Microsoft Office software. You are strongly encouraged to use these computers as they are pre-set with connections to the room's internal AV system. If you work with other software, you should ensure your files are compatible with these programs and backed up to a USB stick. If you are bringing your own laptop, especially if it is a Mac, you will need to bring your own VGA adaptor. Please see the Info for presenters page to help prepare.

Most session rooms will also have a document camera.

Ryerson Wayfinding App

This year for Congress, Ryerson University has created a wayfinding application for campus buildings - external and internal! Using interactive maps with GPS location, directory search function and internal building maps, this app will help you navigate to your destination during Congress 2017. You can can download the app from the App Store, get it on Google Play, or access a website version so you'll never be lost.

Local arrangements
Professor Neil Thomlinson (Department of Politics and Public Administration – Ryerson University) has taken care of the local arrangements. He and the student assistants will be available to help in case of need.
