ASQ Certification Information
Filed under: Certification
The cover story for the August issue of Quality Progress is: Certification at Work.
The ASQ website has information on getting and maintaining your certifications (http://www.asq.org/certification/index.html).
There is information deeper on the ASQ website that you may find useful, whether you have a certification or are simply thinking about getting one. Here are a number of ASQ resources that you can use for getting background on certification.
Value of an ASQ Certification
- Certification Handbook (pdf)
Certification Tracks
- Certification track (pdf from the ASQ Baltimore website; cleaner, matrix format)
Other certification material
- Certification at Work (Quality Progress)
- Certification justification (Quality Progress)
- Value of Certification (Quality Progress)
- ASQ Certification Board Puts Quality Tools to Work (Quality Progress – article that provides background to the Certification test process)
Forums
ASQ forums/communities are a great place to get information and ask questions of other ASQ members about the certification process and how to study for the exams (benefit of membership).
- ASQ Forums: Career (old, no longer active, but the archive is still up)
- ASQ Certification Discussion forum (new ASQ community – lots of good tips/advice from fellow members). The main forums are located here at the ASQ Community forums.
- Elsmar Forums (this forum topic, or search on certification or ASQ certification throughout the forum). Note, this is not an ASQ resource, and you will receive a variety of opinions on the subject of certification, but Elsmar is a good resource for quality/regulatory personnel to be monitoring.
