Pre-arrival Info 2026

Personal details

Please introduce your name as you would like it to be printed on certificates.

Safety and accommodation

Please leave the fields blank if they do not apply to you (please do not write “I do not have any medical implants”, just ignore the field).

Adaptor and Laptop

Adaptors can be borrowed from the CERN Hotel. However, if none are available, we will do our best to help using the small stock of adaptors we have.

Please remember to bring your own adapter with you, just in case.

Lunch bags

One day, we will go for a walk around the city. We need to know what your preferences are for the lunch bags on that day to prepare them in advance.

The menu comes with a banana and a cake (we cannot choose). Drinks can be purchased with your lunch cards that morning at the CERN restaurant R1.

Please choose one option you would like to have.

CERN computing account

You have already been registered at CERN, and we have requested the creation of your official CERN account. Within a few working days, you should receive an email confirming that your account has been activated, together with your username and a temporary password.
