ISTQB Software Tester Certification makes your software testers more valuable and your organization more globally competitive. Just as importantly, ISTQB Certification gives you an outstanding ROI.

Various studies estimate the cost of a post-production software defect in the range of $4,000 - $5,000. If ISTQB Software Tester Certification can help a software tester to eliminate just one post-production defect in his or her career, the return on investment for an ISTQB exam could be as high as 2000%. With our new Volume Purchase Program, that ROI could be even higher.

Learn more right now about the world's most-used software tester certification by contacting ASTQB, the U.S. board for ISTQB Software Tester Certification, at www.astqb.org or 813.319.0890.
