Certified Quality Engineer (CQE) Review
Advance your career and attain the credential of ASQ Certified Quality Engineer. This 40-hour course includes classroom instruction, group discussion, and computer based training materials to prepare you for the national test. Materials: Since this is a review course, students are expected to obtain their own materials and study as much as possible prior to the course date. We will be using the Quality Council of Indiana Primer Instructor’s PDF as we teach this review course. If you would like to purchase materials consistent with the material being presented in the review course, they are available through Quality Council of Indiana or through The QC Group. The cost for the Primer is $75 plus $15 S&H. Again, in order to have the highest likelihood of success on your exam, we encourage the students to obtain their study materials as soon as possible in order to have plenty of time to study prior to the class date. OUR GUARANTEE We stand behind our services! If, after taking one of our ASQ certification review workshops, you do not pass the exam for this certification, we will allow you to attend the same review course again at no charge! |
