Thanks to Cromwell College, we are able to offer SCCS-Australia attendees affordable all-inclusive accommodation for the entire duration of the conference. This special offer includes accommodation in a private room, all means, and free WiFi. As the College is on the University campus, no transport is necessary to get to the conference and all events. This is the cheapest and most convenient all-inclusive accommodation available for the conference. If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity, you can reserve a room on the registration form.
