Want to help Our Section?
Thanks to the efforts of our
local chapter volunteers, we have received the ASQ Gold Excellence
Award. This could not be accomplished without the efforts of
members from our local chapter who are dedicated to the growth
and improvement of our chapter. The loyalty we receive from
the general membership is also paramount to our receiving this
award. We are always looking for new dedicated volunteers to
help.
ASQ limits executive positions to a maximum of 2 consecutive years.
We are looking for new volunteer's currently employed in a Quality Function to help support some of our projects.
If you can volunteer some time and are interested in a position,
call or click on the 'Contact Us' button to email one of the members of the executive committee.
Help keep our Lehigh Valley ASQ Chapter moving forward in
a progressive manner
Monthly
Meetings
Attendance at our monthly meetings has a credit
of 0.3 RU per meeting with a maximum of 9.0 RU's over 3 years.
This is an easy way to get a high percentage of the 18 credits needed for
recertification.
