The CMQ-OE exam, officially titled Certified Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence Exam, is the ASQ exam you pass to earn the Certified Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence certification, a credential at the Professional level. Passing it confirms the skills defined in the official exam outline, and it is associated with related credentials such as ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), ASQ Certified Quality Auditor (CQA), ASQ Certified Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB).

The CMQ-OE exam includes 180 (165 scored, 15 unscored) questions and gives you 258 (4 hours 18 minutes) to finish them. That is a tight pace per question, so get used to reading each stem once, flagging anything uncertain, and moving on rather than getting stuck. Running timed practice tests in the Fast2test desktop or online test engine is the most reliable way to build that rhythm before exam day.

The passing score for the CMQ-OE exam is 550/750 (scaled score), and the official registration fee is $485 (members) / $585 (non-members); Retake: $385. Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying $485 (members) / $585 (non-members); Retake: $385 again in full to retake it, so book your slot only when your scores on Fast2test practice tests sit consistently above the passing line.
