CompleteEASE Short Course Gaithersburg Maryland

The J.A. Woollam Company is proud to announce a data analysis course designed for CompleteEASE users.  We will introduce the fundamentals of data analysis at a beginner-to-intermediate level. All details will be described using the latest CompleteEASE software (currently version 6.43). This version of software will be provided to all attendees to take home with them after the course.

Airport Information

Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) is on the Metro line, and it is simple to connect to the Red Line out to Shady Grove, from which a taxi will take you to your hotel.  Rental cars and cabs from the airport are also available.

Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) is in N. Virginia, and cabs and rental cars are typically used from there.  It is possible to get a cab to the Vienna Metro stop on the Orange line and make connections to get to the Shady Grove stop on the Red line.

Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) is the farthest but can be the cheapest.  Getting from BWI to NIST without a rental car can be complicated, but you can take the MTA train from the BWI Parking stop to Union Station in DC, then take the Red Line Metro out to the end at Shady Grove.  It is a short cab ride from that stop to the area hotels.  Newly available is the ICC Bus, which picks up at BWI and uses the Intercounty Connector (ICC) toll road to get to a park-and-ride lot that is 5 blocks from the NIST front gate and an easy cab ride to hotels.

Parking

Prior to the course we will email a map and parking instructions to all registered attendees.

Lunch
