WELMI Job and Care Personnel Bank Announce Real-Time Answers for Care Manager Exam
On October 12, 2025, the 28th Care Manager Examination will take place, marking a significant milestone for aspiring care managers in Japan.

This partnership ensures rapid dissemination of accurate information, allowing candidates to assess their performance immediately after the exam concludes.

Growing Demand in an Aging Society
Japan is gradually evolving into a super-aged society, where the demand for caregiving services is projected to grow exponentially. As of June 2025, about 7.28 million individuals are expected to require caregiving assistance, with numbers reaching approximately 8.43 million by 2040. This increasing need corresponds to a rise in the workload for care managers, who are responsible for developing care plans and coordinating with healthcare providers. The demand for qualified professionals continues to grow alongside the rising number of individuals requiring support.
However, the complexity of this role cannot be underestimated. Care managers often encounter 'difficult cases,' requiring specialized knowledge and problem-solving abilities. The Care Manager Examination itself is notoriously challenging, with a pass rate of only 32.1% for the 2024 fiscal year.
Timing is Everything for Candidates
Most caregiving organizations begin their workforce planning for the following year around December. For potential care managers, confirming their qualifications before these discussions can ease their transitions into desired job roles. Some may find they need to switch workplaces to become care managers, leading them to seek new employment opportunities. Thus, a swift understanding of their exam results becomes crucial.
WELMI Job and Care Personnel Bank's Commitment
Since 2021, the precursor to WELMI Job, Kaigo Job, has been actively providing real-time answer summaries for care manager exams. Beyond just offering answers, they also provide a self-assessment tool that allows candidates to calculate their scores accurately. The average scores of self-assessment tool users are also accessible.
Additionally, Care Personnel Bank shares information about the practical training required for newly certified care managers post-examination.
The collaboration with the Best Way Care Academy and the Ito Institute’s certification support center is essential for ensuring the reliability and speed of the answer key release, enhancing both precision and efficiency.
