    Abstract:
    The Psychiatric Board System under the Japanese Society of Psychiatry and Neurology was started in 2004. Over the last 10 years, psychiatrists who had worked in the field of psy- chiatry and were recognized as having the necessary training took the board examination, and 10,498 psychiatrists acquired the Psychiatric Specialty Board certification. On the other hand, new psychiatrists who trained according to a special curriculum for more than 3 years took the board examination, and 762 psychiatrists obtained certification through the Psychiatric Specialty Board. According to principle of this system, the Psychiatric Board System should resolve several issues, such as the kind of training facility, issues with medical teaching staff and training pro- grams, the examination system, and the renewal system. An outline of the New Board System under the Japanese Medical Specialty Board is pro- vided, and this system is expected to improve the Psychiatric Board System and may promote the quality of psychiatrists.
