CSD has also sponsored the Certified Supplier Quality Professional exam since 2017 for those quality professionals that wish to formally demonstrate their command of key supplier quality management principles and practices.  To help prepare for this exam, CSD developed the Certified Supplier Quality Professional Handbook and created training classes that are offered through ASQ.
