If ISTQB Foundation Level certification helps a tester eliminate even just one extra post-production software defect during their career, the return on investment (ROI) for their certification would exceed 1500% based on the estimated cost of a post-production software defect of $4,000.

Schedule Now for Online Proctored Exams


ASTQB's ISTQB online exams are more popular than ever, so the available times for taking these exams can be limited between now and the end of the year.
 
Here are recommendations that will help you:
  • Schedule in advance: If you know you are taking your exam before the end of the year, decide when you want to take an exam and schedule it early.
  • If you know you will not be able to take your previously scheduled exam on the planned date, log in and reschedule your appointment now. Do not wait until the last minute.
  • If you have been tasked to take your exam before the end of the year and/or you are not seeing available days and times, please contact the AT*SQA support team. AT*SQA has more than one online proctoring system and can help transfer you to another system if you are taking an online exam.
Good luck on your ISTQB exams!
