ASQ Weekly Benefit Available for Site Member Employees
ASQ Weekly, an electronic newsletter distributed every Wednesday, provides quality news, tools and professional development information. To ensure employees at your location are receiving ASQ Weekly and are able to access other member benefits, we encourage you, the Site member primary contact, to communicate this one-time registration process:
To access benefits, employees should:
- Go to www.asq.org.
- At the “Log In Now” area, enter the Site membership number as the log-in ID and password.
- Register by either linking his or her individual ASQ membership to the Site membership or create an individual account if he or she is not a current individual ASQ member.
Once an employee has established an individual ASQ account, he or she can use it to log in to www.asq.org. Benefits include access to the member-only areas of the ASQ website, member discounts, online purchasing and registration for courses, conferences and certification exams. If you have questions, contact Julie Sharp.
New Networking Benefit Now Available to Site Member Employees
This new benefit is ideal for the employee new to quality who wants to become more involved but doesn’t necessarily want a full ASQ membership right away. Now Site member employees can purchase Section, Division and Forum memberships for a small fee and receive the added benefits of belonging to a networking community:
- Site Member employees may join an ASQ Section for $20 and/or a Division or Forum of their choice for $10.
- Site Member employees may vote on issues within their paid ASQ Section and/or Division or Forum.

- Go to www.asq.org.
- At the “Log In Now” area, enter the Site membership number as the log-in ID and password.
