More than four years work, involving hundreds of calibration practitioners from government agencies, academia, and small and large commercial interests, has culminated in the American Society for Quality (ASQ) Measurement Quality Division (MQD) Certified Calibration Technician (CCT) exam. These calibration practitioners under the auspices of a dedicated ASQ staff and contracted industry professionals engaged in a variety of research, analysis, data acquisition and dissemination of information activities to define the CCT body of knowledge (BOK). The CCT exam reflects the CCT BOK, deemed appropriate by the above mentioned volunteers, for the mid-level calibration practitioner and formally recognizes the scope and depth of the specialized comprehension required by these professionals. The CCT exam marks the first time that certification criterion for a peer recognition program has been established in the U.S. for calibration practitioners. Congratulations to all those who had a hand in making the CCT exam a reality.
