Certified Quality Engineer Certification Preparation Course

Course Methodology
This course is designed to teach topics which are most commonly addressed on the CQE exam.
Each topic is presented in a practical, easy to follow manner that emphasizes the practical
application of the tools covered. A comprehensive manual, designed for use as an exam reference
book, is provided to each attendee. This is not an introductory course and is intended for those
planning to sit for the Certified Quality Engineer Exam. However, the topics are covered in such
sufficient detail that people with little advance knowledge of the concepts will be able to master
them with practice. Participants will be given the opportunity to practice most quantitative tools
during class as well as with optional homework exercises.  It includes an appendix that includes all
necessary statistical tables and a removable set of more than 500 sample exam questions (with an
answer key) for exam study purposes.
