Preparing a team

A team may consist of up to four secondary level students, enrolled in the same school, and a nominated team advisor (usually a teacher).

Team advisors are encouraged to coach and prepare teams in advance for the IM²C, with sample problems and supporting materials being made available as the commencement date draws closer.

All parents of students participating in the contest must sign a Parental/Guardian Permission Form

making their child's work available (with confidentiality assurance) for use in example and training materials for IM²C professional development activities. Additionally, should their team be designated as a national or international finalist, the students' Solution Paper (or solution abstract) may be published on line.

When registering for the IM²C, be sure to use a valid current e-mail address so that we can use it to contact your team at any point before, during, or after the contest, if necessary.
