Changes to Recertification Process
By Dr. David Tozer, Ph.D., ASQ CQE and SSBB, Education & Audit Chair.
By the end of this year, ASQ will change the rules for collecting Recertification Units for certification maintenance.
The main changes affecting certification are:
- Section events will count for 0.1 Recertification Units per hour of the event; currently, they count for 0.5 RUs per event.
- Whole day events will count for 1.0 Recertification Unit.
- There is a reclassification of some of the categories to different sections of categories.
- Obsolete categories are deleted (proctoring & multimedia).
- The Professional Development section (events, courses, training, education . . . ) has no upper limit on the number of Recertification Units that can be claimed.
- A Giving back Section is added for volunteering and mentoring.
