Make the Most of HSMAI’s Commercial Strategy Week
- Download the app when it’s available in June to get the latest schedule information and important announcements…and connect with fellow attendees.
- Spend time in the Partner Showcase. Talk with the companies there about how their products and services can help you and your hotel(s) become more effective and efficient.
- Have a little fun in Charlotte! The HSMAI staff team’s favorites are NASCAR Hall of Fame, U.S. National Whitewater Center, Carowinds, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Carolina History and Haunts Ghost Tour, a day trip (or longer) to Asheville (the eastern gateway to Great Smoky Mountain National Park), and a long weekend in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (only a 3-hour drive away)!
- Get your CRME or CHDM! Certification Review Courses on Monday are terrific final cram sessions before you take the exam.
- Come with a colleague(s)! In addition to the quality time you’ll have to hash out the latest challenges at the office, you’ll have 2 (or more) sets of eyes and ears to attend concurrent education sessions and bring back actionable learnings. Group pricing is available.
