Daitra and GMO Connect Collaborate to Bridge Learning and Practical Work Skills
In an innovative move to strengthen the connection between education and real-world skills, Daitra Co., Ltd., which operates the online school "Daitra," has teamed up with GMO Connect Co., Ltd., part of the major GMO Group. This collaboration led to the launch of a practical video production competition aimed at students enrolled in the video editing course.
The competition invited participants to create video works based on themes provided by GMO Connect, simulating a work environment closely resembling real business projects. This new initiative allows students to demonstrate their learning outcomes in a genuine business context. The event not only recognized the best entries but also facilitated instances where participants received inquiries for work and collaborations from companies.
Daitra has been committed to the concept of "linking learning to work," offering online courses in web development, video editing, and other skills. This latest collaboration with GMO Connect responds to feedback from students who expressed the need for more real-world challenges similar to actual work experiences.
By providing an environment where students can showcase skills that are often difficult to measure with traditional portfolios, the competition promotes immediate employability for participants. The competition's structure included various components:
Winning Entry and Benefits: Among a diverse array of submissions, the winning entry, a "Company Introduction Video" created by Wahaha (age 28, residing in Hokkaido), stood out for its exceptional understanding of the client's challenges and its meticulous animated presentation. #####
