Introduction

CIN GROUP, headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, is all set to host a crucial seminar titled "Regional Club Activities Support Seminar". This event will take place over two days on September 2nd and September 8th, 2026. Targeted specifically at local government officials and education committee members, the seminar aims to shed light on the development and management of regional activities in the context of school clubs.

The seminar is co-hosted with FCE, another significant player in the educational and DX (digital transformation) sector. A highlight of the event will be a keynote lecture delivered by Takashi Harada, the founder of the Harada Educational Research Institute and the developer of the renowned Harada Method. Harada is renowned for his contributions to education, particularly in improving student outcomes through unique coaching methods.

Objectives of the Seminar

The rationale behind this seminar stems from the pressing need for clear guidelines regarding the establishment of educational activities outside of the traditional classroom setting. In light of changes in school club management, communities are struggling to ensure these activities adhere to educational standards. The seminar aims to explore practical frameworks, guidelines, and budgeting techniques essential for establishing educational legitimacy for club activities once schools are no longer involved.

The sessions will be held as follows:

• - Date: September 2nd (Wednesday) and September 8th (Tuesday) from 14:00 to 15:30
• - Venue: Shinjuku NS Building, Seminar Rooms (30th Floor for September 2nd and 3rd Floor for September 8th)
• - Location: 2-4-1 Nishi-Shinjuku, Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan
• - Accessibility: Easily accessible via Toei Oedo Line "Tocho Mae" Station and various lines from "Shinjuku" Station.
