Background of the New Website

As many companies in Japan recognize the shortage of DX and AI talent as a critical management issue, the demand for effective training solutions continues to grow annually. This talent gap poses challenges not only to individual companies' competitiveness but also significantly impacts the productivity and sustainable growth of society as a whole.

In response to this urgent situation, TECH PLAY Academy has established a new site designed to provide seamless access to vital information about its four core programs. With the increasing emphasis on incorporating generative AI into practical business applications, the updated site aims to facilitate strategic training design for companies. By presenting the programs in a way that allows for intuitive comparison and selection, the academy is committed to supporting enhanced employee development and nurturing sustainable growth for both companies and society.

Accelerating DX and AI Education with Four Key Training Programs

At TECH PLAY Academy, we have systematically organized four essential training programs that serve as the backbone for developing DX and AI talent. These programs are tailored to equip individuals with not only the knowledge and skills needed but also the ability to apply them effectively in transforming businesses.

Insight from TECH PLAY Company President Hideo Kataoka

Hideo Kataoka, the president of TECH PLAY Company, emphasizes the rising demand for skilled personnel who can adeptly leverage advancing technologies, particularly generative AI. Rather than focusing solely on acquiring knowledge and skills, companies are increasingly seeking individuals who can connect this learning to actual business transformation.

Given that the landscape of technology is constantly evolving, and studies indicate that 86% of training participants fail to apply what they’ve learned to their work, TECH PLAY Academy is dedicated to addressing this issue through practical and systematic training approaches.

The recent launch of the new website represents a vital step toward delivering this commitment more effectively to businesses. Moving forward, we will continue to support the development of DX and AI talent through the new site, contributing to solutions for the challenges faced by Japanese companies in addressing talent shortages and organizational transformation needs.
