JobRainbow Unveils Individual D&I Certification Level 2
In a significant move towards promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace, JobRainbow, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is launching the Level 2 Certification for Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) for individuals, starting May 1, 2026. After an initial rollout for corporations that began on March 18, 2026, this announcement marks a crucial opportunity for all business professionals to sharpen their skills in diversity management.
To celebrate the launch, JobRainbow is offering a promotional campaign that will run from May 1 to June 30, 2026. During this two-month period, the certification fee of 12,000 yen (excluding tax) will be reduced by half to just 6,000 yen (excluding tax). This initiative aims to equip modern business professionals with essential skills in diversity management, providing an excellent opportunity for advancement in their careers.
At its core, the Level 2 D&I Certification is designed to transcend traditional corporate boundaries. It empowers individuals to turn diversity management skills into advantageous assets within their organizations. As global workplaces become increasingly diverse, having effective management skills to consolidate members with various values and perspectives is now essential. Despite the growing understanding of diversity and inclusion, many professionals often struggle with practical application. Concerns like the inability to translate understanding into effective action, friction arising from differing values, or unintentional negative consequences from attempts to be considerate are frequently reported.
The Level 2 D&I Certification serves to address these concerns and is backed by the promise to help professionals overcome real-world challenges and maximize the benefits of diversity. By establishing a shared language for D&I, JobRainbow aims to elevate career development and evolve organizations and society in ways that allow every individual to thrive and express their authentic selves.
The Three Key Benefits of Level 2 D&I Certification
1.
Immediate Practical Skills: Unlike many traditional frameworks that focus on theoretical ideals, the Level 2 Certification provides practical knowledge aimed at addressing the challenges faced by management teams and next-generation leaders. Participants will learn strategies for responding to microaggressions, supporting the growth of diverse team members, and making inclusive decisions. These are not just theoretical concepts but actionable frameworks that professionals can readily apply at work.
2.
Objective Skills Certification: Upon passing the assessment, candidates will receive a certification that objectively verifies their capability to foster diversity and maximize an organization’s potential. This credential will add considerable value to one’s resume and interviews, making it a vital asset for anyone involved in areas that require interaction with diverse groups, from leadership to sales and customer service.
3.
Accessible Online Testing: Candidates can take the certification test online from either their PC or smartphone, making it flexible for busy professionals. This allows everyone the opportunity to enhance their skills during any available time, without disrupting their work schedules.
