APPLICATION PROCESS & TIMELINE
- Submit your application:
Application review takes 7-10 business days.
- ASQ Review:
After ASQ completes the review process, you will receive an approval notification via email or a “hold” message explaining that more information is needed for your application to be approved. If it is determined that you do not meet exam requirements, you will receive a refund minus a $130 processing fee.
- Testing Options for Computer-Based Testing (CBT):
7-10 business days after you receive your approval notification, you will receive an eligibility email containing instructions on how to schedule your exam with our testing provider, Prometric.
- Schedule your exam with Prometric:
ASQ computer-based tests are delivered through our partner, Prometric. Schedule your exam appointment in the testing window you chose at the time of application.
- If you do not schedule your exam or show up for the scheduled appointment:
If you do not schedule your exam appointment with Prometric by the last day of your eligibility period, you will forfeit your fees. You will not receive a refund, and you will not be able to use the initial fees for anything else. If you still wish to obtain the certification, you will have to reapply and submit all associated fees again. (Your eligibility period is 180 days, starting with the exam window you selected during the application process.)
- No-show policy:
If you do not contact Prometric or ASQ within five days of your appointment to reschedule or cancel your exam appointment and fail to show up during your scheduled appointment time, we will designate you as a no-show. If you are a no-show, you will forfeit the test fee and need to reregister and repay the test fee.
