    <description>Start Your QA Training Today!

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.successful-quality-assurance.com/quality-assurance-education.html&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Software Quality Assurance training courses&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; are up and ready for you!  Many readers have asked when these courses were going to be available.

&lt;center&gt;Well, now they are!&lt;/center&gt;

I begin by offering two crucial paths that will create a solid foundation for your QA education.  They are Elite Tester Skills and Professional Bug Writing.

&lt;b&gt;The Elite Tester Skills courses are:&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Getting Started as a Tester &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;10 Skills of Elite Testers &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ace a Post Mortem&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;b&gt;The Professional Bug Writing courses are: &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;10 Critical Elements of a Bug &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;5 Keys to a Bulletproof Bug &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;5 Steps to Bug Regression &lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

The goal of these courses is to give you the most solid foundation possible to begin your Quality Assurance training and career.  They are quick, simple, effective, and extremely affordable.

Please &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.successful-quality-assurance.com/Contact_Us.html&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;let me know&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; if you find more effective and affordable QA training.  I have not found it - if it exists.

The first course in each path is free so that you can become familiar with the terminology, methods, and foundation.  Keep in mind that those first free courses &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;are only an orientation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.  The courses later in each path all have a great deal more detail, information, and action steps!  And most of those courses even come with a &lt;b&gt;FREE Bonus&lt;/b&gt; course once completed.

If you want to get started in the software testing industry, these courses will give you what you need to know to begin the right way.  There are software testing jobs all over the world right now that need qualified QA professionals.

&lt;center&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;There may be no better time to get into the testing field! &lt;/center&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

Create a future for yourself and check out the courses.  How much is a career in the software industry worth to you?</description>
