The sequel to our Level-One Certification Preparatory Course, this Level-Two Training Course is designed to assist and inform students in the topics covered within the Coordinate Measurement Society’s (CMS) Level-Two Certification for 3D Metrology. The aims and objectives of this CMS Level 2 Certification Preparatory Course are to remind the student of techniques and good practice in the use of their portable metrology equipment.  In the class, we use practical examples of how the subject may be applied to different applications.

Although it is not required to take the CMS Certification Exam after the training, ECM recommends that you register for the Exam online to begin the acceptance process.  All applicants can register by downloading the following application form. Additional costs apply for exam registration.

The course reviews the five broad areas of knowledge considered in the level two test

  • Setup equipment, select and qualify probes.
  • Instrument relocation.
  • Perform measurement and report results per dimensioned print.
  • Perform measurement and report results per GD&T requirements.
  • Perform measurement and report results against a CAD model.
