Refresher Course Guidelines for 3-Time Exam Flunkers

Board of Medical Technology collaborated with PASMETH and PAMET to design a course of study.
The course is intended specifically for candidates who have failed the examination three times.
The Board formally adopted the Course of Study as the guideline for the refresher course.

The refresher course must be offered and administered by duly recognized or accredited schools, colleges, or universities with Medical Technology programs accredited by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).
Institutions must secure a Certificate of Accreditation for the refresher course from the Board of Medical Technology before offering the program.

Completion of the course entitles the student (three-time flunker) to a Certificate of Completion bearing the institution's seal.
The certificate must be authenticated and presented when filing an application for the licensure examination.
The certificate is valid for two years from issuance and may be applied for up to three examination attempts.
After expiration or exhaustion of allowed attempts, a new certificate must be obtained.

The resolution becomes effective 15 days after publication in the Official Gazette or a newspaper of general circulation.
Copies are distributed to deans of Medical Technology programs in public and private institutions, PASMETH, and PAMET for information dissemination.

Failing candidate enrolls in the 12-month refresher course in an accredited educational institution.
Upon successful course completion, the candidate is issued a Certificate of Completion.
Candidate files application for the licensure examination attaching the authenticated certificate.
Candidate may take the examination up to three times within two years using the same certificate.
If the time frame or exam attempts lapse, the refresher course must be retaken to secure a new certificate.

Ensures candidates attain sufficient remedial education before re-examination.
Maintains high standards in the Medical Technology profession through regulated requalification processes.
Guarantees program quality by restricting refresher course administration to CHED-recognized institutions with Board accreditation.
Protects public health by requiring competent and qualified medical technologists.

The resolution implicitly restricts candidates from retaking the licensure examination without fulfilling the refresher course obligation after three failures.
No mention of specific sanctions for non-compliance but failure to comply bar re-examination eligibility.
