Courses, Workshops, and Conferences
In Canada, it is common knowledge
that the absence of metrology programs at Canadian universities
means that the majority of metrologists are trained 'on the job'.
This is particularly true for SMEs where investment in metrological
specialization is difficult because of inefficiencies of scale.
INMS responds to the challenge to provide education-based services
directly to industry, stakeholder associations and other government
departments by organizing and delivering external conferences and
seminars concerning the measurement of basic physical quantities
and the application of metrology.

The Summary of Lectures publication from the 2002 course
is still available. This 420 page book contains proceedings of 25
lectures providing up-to-date information on the basic concepts,
instrumentation, measurement procedures and standards used in the
fields of photometry, radiometry and colorimetry.
The cost of the Summary of Lectures book is $120 (in US dollars
for foreign requests). This price includes all taxes and shipping.
A CD containing the complete contents of the Summary of Lectures
and selected PowerPoint presentations is available at a cost of
$90 (in US dollars for foreign requests). Discounted fees are available
