Chelsea, it is probably too early for IMSC to have a conference schedule and registration set up for the November 2017 conference. However, try sending and email to
imscinfo@ymail.com to see what is currently available.
The hotel will be the Flamingo in LV. We do get a special rate there, which will show up once everything is finalized and they are ready to take reservations. Typically the IMSC is two VERY full days and early evenings of workshops. Some years there is also a separate (separate fee) for a networking dinner and drinks, if you like, the night before the first conference day. However, you will find plenty of time for networking the other days and evenings as well and all of the conference MSC sponsors will have tables and various managers ready to engage with shoppers both between and during sessions. There is also usually a full day of video training for beginners and one for advanced video shoppers, which are just before and/or after the IMSC conference dates. Those are run separately by Video Pros. Jeff of VP posts here. The special hotel room rate is available for several days before and after the conference for those who wish to attend the video workshops and/or who have NV REQUIRED shopper credentials and wish to make money doing ships in the area. Finally, reps from the NV licensing board are usually on hand to help shoppers sign up, get fingerprinted and pay for NV credentials, on site. (Thereafter, the credentials will arrive by mail 2 to 12 weeks later.)
