Introduction to the Free Seminar on Japanese Language Education
Due to overwhelming interest from the first session, PMC Co., Ltd. is excited to announce the second installment of our free seminar titled "What Will You Do? Free Information Session on Japanese Language Education". This event will take place on July 28, 2026. As Japan increases its reliance on foreign workers through the new training employment system, understanding how to effectively educate these individuals in the Japanese language is becoming increasingly essential.
Highlights from the Previous Seminar
The first seminar, hosted just two days after being announced via PR TIMES, quickly reached full capacity for online participation, underscoring the keen interest among supervising organizations and companies involved in accepting foreign workers. As the training employment system approaches its launch, businesses recognize that Japanese language education is no longer just an additional support measure, but a key component directly related to the operation of the system itself.
Legal Framework and Guidelines
In anticipation of the opening of the training employment system, the Immigration Services Agency of Japan has been actively publicizing and updating key information regarding the system's framework, relevant laws, and operational guidelines. This increased visibility in news and publications signifies a growing necessity for both practical arrangements and preparatory measures.
Importance of Language Proficiency in the System
Within this framework, the training employment system now includes specific linguistic benchmarks: achieving an A1 level in Japanese proficiency before starting work and an A2 level by the end of the training period. These criteria are critical for evaluating foreign workers' progress and ensuring compliance with the system's standards.
Common Queries from Businesses
In light of these developments, many organizations have begun seeking advice on various aspects of Japanese language education, such as:
- - What type of language instruction should be provided during pre-entry training?
- - Who is responsible for conducting Japanese lessons during the training employment period, and how should it be executed?
- - Given that A1 and A2 levels have been established, what practical steps should be taken?
- - What preparations need to be made now to comply with these new standards?
Packing the Essentials for the Seminar
During this upcoming information session, participants will receive a comprehensive overview of the training employment system, touching upon:
- - Key points of the system's framework and requirements
- - Differences between Japanese language education in pre-entry training and during the training employment period
- - Immediate considerations for supervising organizations and accepting companies regarding their preparations
