The CCA Cyber Café will be open during the conference week for delegates to retrieve their e-mails, access the internet and print small documents. As was done last year, in addition to wired internet connections, we will be providing wireless high-speed internet access and a couple of stations will be provided for the children's exclusive use. Coffee, bottled water and snack foods will be available.

CCA, along with its Platinum and Gold conference sponsors, will display resource material of interest to conference delegates in the area designated for the cyber-café.

Whether you use it for business or as a gathering point, the CCA Cyber Café is the place to meet each other between sessions and social events.

Important: Please have your system administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) set up your e-mail for remote access before using the CCA Cyber-Café to retrieve your e-mail messages. Remember, you will need your username and password, as well as the URL (address) to log on to your e-mail account via the Internet.
