The exam was cake. Took it along with a class at the University of Miami at the College of Engineering.

Have to say though, as a Program Manager, I’ve benefited from the experience and learnings of the class but in terms of hiring, I haven’t seen employers care much about the certification at all.

A lot of people like the Villanova certification. One point of advice I'd give if you'd like it to hold any weight, is to take the ASQ exam matching the level of course you took. Also, just make sure wherever you take it does award PDUs, that way you know it was legit.

Welcome to the world of process improvement!

Does the Villanova course prep you for the asq exam? I have to register/pay for these separately?
