Welcome to CATCA 2025! We are excited to see you soon but here are a few reminders...

1. Adding a session to your schedule does not guarantee your attendance. Room capacities are in effect and sessions will be accessed on a physical first come, first served basis on the day of the event. Alternatively, If you are ’Waitlisted", this only means that there are a number of interested delegates beyond the capacity limits for this session - get there early to secure your seat!

2. As we attempt to make CATCA 2025 as amazing as possible, there may be changes made to the schedule up until the day before - Please check your schedule for any time or venue changes or possible cancellations.

3. Please check session description for possible fees associated with materials for some of the art sessions. These will be paid directly to the presenter.

4. Do remember that there might be sessions not at our main venue, do look carefully where the session is at.

A floor plan showing the rooms in RDP that we’re using for convention is available here.

All pre-recording videos will be up until May 31st.

RDP Room 1006R (Library Lab)

The default tendency of group (or class) is to socialize with familiar people, but what about those who are new or who don’t know anyone? Or, what if it's the first day of class and no one really knows anyone? How can conversations (and maybe friendships) start? Icebreakers abound, but Speed Chatting is a framework for getting any group of people to talk and learn about each other in a low-stress, structured way. Try it yourself, and take away the details to organize your own Speed Chatting.
