Availability
Professionals are not expected to be available for the whole Competition. However, preference will be given to professionals who can be available for substantial parts of the Competition.
All professionals will be expected to participate in a preparatory training session taking place during the Competition.
Costs
ICC is regrettably not in a position to cover costs for travel and hotel accommodations. Therefore each participant is responsible for his or her own expenses. The Organizing Committee will provide participating professionals with a list of hotels with which ICC has special agreements.
Further, various social and training events take place during the Competition, to which all professionals are invited by ICC.
