RESUMEN
The Japanese Certification Board for Diabetes Educator (JCBDE) was inaugurated on 29 February 2000 through the collaboration of the Japan Diabetes Society, Japan Society of Metabolism and Clinical Nutrition, and Japan Academy of Diabetes Education and Nursing. Certified Diabetes Educator of Japan (CDEJ) is a qualification awarded to a nurse, dietitian, pharmacist, clinical laboratory technician, or physiotherapist possessing wide specialist knowledge on diabetes. CDEJ have passed the required examinations and approved by the board.

In Japan, a qualification similar to certified diabetes educator is the "Certified Expert Nurse (CEN) in diabetic nursing". A certified expert nurse is a qualification awarded by the Japanese Nursing Association.
