THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ASQ CERTIFICATION
AND A CERTIFICATE OF TRAINING
An authentic professional certification is formal recognition by a respected,
recognized, and established professional organization that an individual has
demonstrated a proficiency within, and comprehension of, a specified body
of knowledge.
An ASQ certification, like most authentic professional certifications, requires
that individuals demonstrate these competencies by passing an exam and having
a track record of expertise in one of the specified quality disciplines, such as
Six Sigma. ASQ does not require you to take the ASQ training—or any other
particular courses—as a condition of awarding such certifications.
There has been a great deal of confusion as to the true meaning of certification,
especially recently, as individuals and companies strive to achieve and validate
competencies in a competitive job market. Numerous training companies,
educational institutions, and even individual training consultants are competing
to sell training courses that purportedly include “certification.”
