Last week I wrote an article: ASQ at an Inflection Point. I received many personal comments and emails.
I appreciate all comments received. I value them. There may have been some confusion about the point of my article. Below is a more bulleted approach to the key points.
- The 9001 certification is seen as having less value. Hence, its decline. ISO 9001 is the largest ISO certification. The combined certification numbers of the other ISO certification do not match ISO 9001’s. ASQ offers certifications, specific training and books associated with ISO 9001. To the extent that ISO 9001 certifications decline, ASQ’s revenues decline.
