CMS Certification examinations during conference
The CMS will also offer the CMS Level-One and Level-Two certification examinations during the conference. The Level-One certification examination is a proctored, online assessment covering foundational theory and practice common to most portable 3D metrology devices. The Level-Two certification is a hands-on performance examination for users of articulated arm portable coordinate measuring machines (PCMMs). This device-specific assessment is conducted by CMS-authorized proctors. The cost for a CMS member to take either certification exam is $400, non-member pricing is also available. Certification program guidelines and application forms are available on the CMS website athttp://www.cmsc.org/cms-certification.
