As I keep saying, at least a Certified BMET scheme will ensure that those who are qualified in such a way will have actually proved their competency in an open, transparent (international, even), manner.
How does BMET achieve this? Do all individuals working as technicians working in healthcare in the US/Canada have to sit this exam (and have a biomedical engineering degree, relevant training, plus relevant experience, of course)?
You're saying regulate the "fully qualified", i.e. certificated, individual, not the post they hold, irrespective of their employer, as long as they carry out the work of a biomedical engineering technician, am I correct?
This would mean more stringent and restrictive requiements on individuals (even for those currently in post, who'd have to sit an exam to continue working) would it not? I am beginning to like it. How can this be driven forward then?
