AEON to Host Free English Conversation Training for University Staff

AEON Co., Ltd., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, is inviting university, junior college, and technical college staff to participate in a free trial session of their practical English conversation training program. This event is scheduled for December 16, 2025, from 15:00 to 16:00 (JST) via Zoom.

The English training program is specifically designed to cater to the linguistic needs of those working at universities by incorporating feedback gathered from actual staff members. Many schools, primarily among public and national universities across Japan, have adopted this unique approach that focuses on language used within academic settings.

During the trial session, participants will experience a short lesson lasting approximately 45 minutes, which typically consists of a full 60-minute training unit. This course is particularly relevant for individuals looking to enhance their ability to communicate in English with international students and faculty or for those interested in promoting their institutions on a global scale.

This trial session is not only beneficial for universities considering the introduction of new staff training initiatives but also for those aiming to reassess their current training programs. AEON is committed to supporting everyone striving to improve their language skills on their journey toward personal and professional goals.
