Hi!
I want to ask if anyone here knows if I can get a license to work as a Clinical Laboratory Scientist in Japan? Right now, I am working as Clinical Laboratory Scientist here in San Francisco, California. I am eyeing in the future to move and work in Japan. I hope you can help me! Thanks!

According to this: https://www.jamt.or.jp/english/license.html
“For persons trained outside of Japan to become a BLS [biomedical laboratory scientist] in Japan, they must obtain a license in Japan. All the examination questions are written in Japanese; thus, they must be able to communicate in Japanese.”
* **Competency for Japanese Novice Medical Laboratory Scientists**
“little evidence-based information about the
competency of novice medical laboratory scientists exists in Japan…”
