Those who have obtained a nursing assistant license must complete continuing education and report their qualifications. This is to ensure that the license is renewed periodically to maintain its validity. Continuing education was newly established in 2016, and according to the Medical Act, 8 hours per year must be completed. In addition, the qualification declaration must be done once every three years. Continuing education can be exempted in the year in which a nursing assistant is acquired, and training must be completed in the year in which there is work history. If there is no work history, a report must be submitted along with reasons such as exemption, suspension, and non-target for refresher education. It is divided into regular training and supplementary training for the previous year. If you do not receive refresher training as a nursing assistant, you may be given a warning and an administrative disposition such as suspension of qualification for 7 days.
