An ISTQB accredited training provider is someone who has extensive knowledge and experience in testing and can provide additional insight into test terminology and syllabus content to facilitate the achievement of ISTQB certification.
A course from an ISTQB-accredited training provider guarantees that the content covers all sections and parts according to the Syllabus and is therefore a good basis for your ISTQB examinations. The teacher is also certified, has knowledge of the current course and also has pedagogical skills.

Survey: 89% of software testers more valuable to their organization after ISTQB certification

TAMPA, Fla. (March 16, 2010) - Certified software testers report that since receiving their first ISTQB certification, they are more valuable to their organization, and more systematic in their testing.

In a survey of 219 certified software testers by the American Software Testing Qualifications Board (ASTQB), 89% indicated that they are more valuable to their organizations since receiving their first ISTQB software tester certification. 83% of software testers also indicated that they are now more systematic in their testing.

 

"These survey results suggest that ISTQB software tester certification provides a framework for professional development that is valuable not only to the testers, but also to their companies," said ASTQB President Patricia McQuaid, who leads the non-profit U.S. board for ISTQB software tester certification. Over 110,000 software testers worldwide currently hold ISTQB certifications.

 

"We believe that our rigorous exam development and comprehensive, free syllabi and glossary resources help make ASTQB's certification uniquely practical and useful for software testers and their companies," continued McQuaid. The 76-page Foundation Level syllabus, 114-page Advanced Level syllabus and 43-page glossary of testing terms are available at no charge at the ASTQB website, www.astqb.org, as are sample Foundation Level question sets.

 

Additional survey results may be found at the ASTQB Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/ASTQB-ISTQB-in-the-US/119329946198.
