Software failure can cost you your job.
Most CEOs worry about their job security when critical systems break, and many report brand damage from recent failures. An ISTQB certification from ASTQB improves your testing team’s ability to reduce risk, improve quality, lower costs, and speed up delivery.
Protect your career
- ASTQB (ISTQB in the U.S.) ensures testers are trained and examined against a proven body of knowledge. This learning and proof of competence directly show incredible results. Studies show that formal testing conducted by certified personnel can exceed 99% defect removal efficiency. Fewer escaped defects mean fewer incidents that reach customers or the boardroom. ISTQB certification also helps you to create defined processes, verified competencies, and documented test evidence as part of your due diligence narrative.
Protect your company
- Your company’s reputation is fragile. A majority of CEOs say software failures have harmed their company’s image in the last five years. Protect your company and your career with certified testers. Certified testers apply consistent techniques for test design, coverage, and risk-based prioritization. That reduces rework, cuts production defects, and limits customer impact. The result is a lower likelihood of outages and exposure for your company, and peace of mind for yourself.
Improve quality, reduce costs, and shorten schedules
- Teams of certified testers catch defects earlier, when they are fastest and cheapest to fix, which compresses timelines and reduces cost overruns. Studies have found cost and schedule gains associated with formal testing by certified professionals. Organizations that certify through ASTQB and its exam provider AT*SQA often see exceptional returns, with ROI that can exceed 1500% through fewer defects, less rework, and faster releases.
