About The Course
RAMwright is pleased to offer a training course for the Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE) examination conducted by the American Society for Quality (ASQ). CRE certification is widely accepted in the industry as the badge of excellence for Reliability Engineers and getting this certification will deepen your knowledge, propel your career forward, and command higher pay in the job market. See more benefits of certification from ASQ here.
CRE certification is conferred by ASQ after the candidate passes a comprehensive 4.5-hour online examination consisting of 165 multiple-choice questions from the topics assigned in the Body of Knowledge (BOK). The ASQ also stipulates minimum requirements before sitting for the exam. Learn more about the CRE exam, requirements, and registration from ASQ here.
Our training’s objective is to guide you with the tools and give the opportunity to practice questions enabling you to pass the certification examination. Though this course is structured to help prepare for the exam, the theoretical explanation and the practical exercises will help the students understand all facets of Reliability Engineering and help guide their organization to achieve its goals.
