Is it your manager's obligation to make sure you maintain your certification with an agency to continue employment?

In the context of professional certifications in allied health, while employers often value certifications and may encourage or suggest that employees maintain them, the ultimate responsibility for maintaining certification typically lies with the individual employee. This means that it is not the manager's obligation to ensure that an employee keeps their certification current for continued employment.

Each health professional is responsible for keeping track of the expiration dates, renewal requirements, and associated continuing education necessary to maintain their certification. Employers may provide support—such as facilitation of training or reminders—but the proactive maintenance of certification is primarily an individual responsibility.

The other choices reflect various nuances about certification obligations that may apply in different scenarios, but they do not encompass the general principle that the personal responsibility for maintaining certification rests with the employee.
