\nFAQ<\/h3>\n
\nCohorts are available to DAS2021 conference ticket holders only. After registering, you will receive an email with information about joining.<\/p>\n
\nThere is no fee for participating in a cohort.<\/p>\n
\nEach cohort’s participants are other conference attendees who want to attend the conference, make friends, and learn together.<\/p>\n
\nIf you’re participating in a cohort, you’re with peers you’ll want to get to know (and vice versa). And you’ll want to learn with them. Please be an active contributor to the chat discussion, react to the presentations, share relevant articles, and be supportive of each other. In two words: show up!<\/p>\n
\nWith the kindness and generosity that you’d like others to offer you. Remember that it’s easy to misinterpret what people say in a purely digital environment. Let your facilitator know if you need help or have concerns. And please familiarize yourself with our Code of Conduct<\/a> so you know our principles for being together, and procedures if there is a problem.<\/p>\n
\nOur facilitators are people like you who want to attend DAS2021 and who have volunteered to facilitate your cohort. Please help them by being an active and generous participant.<\/p>\n
