CPHQ exam

I've interviewed for several jobs in the past year. They all wanted this &/or Six Sigma.... so it must mean something to someone. I would be great to hear from someone who has CPHQ. Anyone out there?

Hi,

I have a CPHQ. It was a relatively hard exam, however there are many study tools out there and if you use them, you will most likely pass.

Have you found that is was worth it to take it? has it gotten you a job or promotion? Thanks.

Its definitely made me competitive for quality related positions positions. It hasn't got me a promotion just yet.

But then again when I'm ready to advance in my career I just leave the job rather than wait around for a promotion.

So yes, I would say its worth it.

Hi Zahryia,

What did books did you use to study for the CPHQ?

Thanks in-advance.

I used the JB quality handbook by Janet Brown. If you can attend the workshop that's even better, but the book is sufficient.

It might also be helpful to join your local NAHQ section.

Hi Zahryia...if you could elaborate...what made the exam hard? I have approximately 3 years working in QPI and have been studying but I hear the pass rate is around 70% and I'm just wondering why. Thanks!

Wow. I didn't know the passing rate was 70%.

Anyway, I wouldn't say it's hard per se, but you do need to study. I happened to do bad in the areas I didn't study as much.

Thankfully, I didn't fail any sections. If I'm not mistaken you can't fail anymore than one or two sections.
