The American Society for Quality: Leader in Providing Six Sigma Certifications

There are many training institutions that provide these certifications upon their completion of training. Only three institutions in the United States standout from the pool of institutions, and these are American Society of Quality, the Institute of Industrial Engineers, and the International Association for six sigma certification. The focus of the succeeding paragraphs, though, is towards the American Society for Quality, or the ASQ.
The American Society for Quality or ASQ is the most recognized professional certification organization internationally and are very well known for giving various levels of professional certifications. ASQ started offering certifications of Six Sigma in 2001.
