What do I tell my employer to convince them to let me attend the CMSC?
CMSC is an international group of close tolerance industrial measurement specialists and manufacturers and developers of alignment systems, targeting hardware, Portable Coordinate Measurement Machine's (PCMMs), electronic theodolites, laser projection systems, laser trackers, laser radar, photogrammetry / videogrammetry systems and metrology software. No other conference or seminar in the country focuses specifically on 3D coordinate metrology. When you combine virtually every 3D measurement system/software manufacturer with an specialized class of users you have an unparalleled exchange of information, ideas and equipment. The technical presentations and Thursday seminars provide an invaluable exchange of knowledge.

Am I required to stay at the Grand Sierra Resort?
Attendees to the CMSC are not restricted to stay at the hotel facility where the conference is held. In year's past, the conference has completely booked the hotel and overflow went to a hotel nearest to the conference proceedings. However each year as the surroundings change, it is much simpler to stay at the Hotel with the rest of the conference attendees where sponsors schedule events that run well into the late evening hours. Most of these events are posted on the website program but some of the organizations sponsors do not make the publication dates. We recomend you speak to an associate that has participated in the past or contact one of the CMSC Excutive Committee members with questions that may be more focused on your company requirements.
