I was just wondering what is the average salary range for a Quality Engineer. I am currently looking for new opportunities.

Wes Bucey said:Are you an ASQ member? Then you can access the data at ASQ's website http://www.asq.org/data/subscriptions/qp/2005/1205/salary-regular-results.html
Quality Digest also runs a salary survey
http://www.qualitydigest.com/may06/articles/06_article.shtml
open to any reader regardless of ASQ status.
It would be interesting to know if you also have an ASQ certification as a QE.
I don't think so.Coury Ferguson said:I also forgot that the QD is an affiliate of ASQ, I believe.

I don't know, but I can assume that Quality Digest surveys a sampling of its readership. That information should be in the article. BTW, I just completed the ASQ survey.Coury Ferguson said:Al,
That is what I thought, but I wasn't sure. That is why I stated "I believe."
But what about my question regarding the survey being organizational membership specific?
Coury Ferguson
ASQ's survey is restricted to replies from members.Coury Ferguson said:I am having trouble loading the QD Salary Survey but will soon. Is this report based upon members of a specific organization (ASQ surveys members only) or is it based upon overall Salary throughout the US and other countries and companies regardless of membership?
(Added) Just downloaded it. It says there are 61 pages but only 6 pages are available. I also forgot that the QD is an affiliate of ASQ, I believe.

Methodology
Quality Digest contacted 34,272 subscribers by e-mail and invited them to take the salary survey online. We also included a survey form in the April 2006 issue of the magazine instructing readers to participate online or to fax in the survey. To increase the response rate, participants were entered into a random drawing for an Apple iPod. From both sources, we received a total of about 2,700 responses. Weeding out invalid, duplicate or incomplete responses, there were 2,594 valid submissions.
More than 85 percent of the respondents indicated that they were quality professionals. The actual percentage is probably higher because many respondents may have generic titles, such as technician, yet perform a quality function. For the rough breakdown of respondents, see figures 10 and 11 below.
