I am delighted to welcome you to this overview of Binghamton section of the American Society of Quality. Being the best professional you can be, is so very important in today's competitive economic environment. And, ASQ can help you become a better skilled in your area of expertise. The emphasis on quality is greater than ever as consumers search for the best possible value. And, the importance of quality transcends every industry, profession, and consumer activity; including education, healthcare, and government.

With many years of experience in industry myself, I have seen the changes in quality emphasis over the years. The changes have been very positive and today we enjoy much better products and services. However, I suspect the challenges that are yet to come, are equally important and challenging. As professionals, we need to continually improve ourselves and others in preparing for our future. In addition to making us better, ASQ provides opportunities to mentor the next generation of quality professionals.

If you are not already involved in the ASQ, I invite you to join me and Binghamton ASQ team. Let's generate the true feeling of satisfaction through our chapter's works
