Enhancing Learning: Japan Management Association's 'manaable'

The Japan Management Association (JMA), headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, has introduced an upgraded seminar management system named "manaable," designed to streamline the seminar registration and attendance process. This new system will be officially launched on March 6, 2026, and will progressively be utilized for seminars starting in April 2026.

Background of the New System

In response to the growing demands for human resource development in corporations and organizations, JMA's public seminars have evolved to include various participation methods such as in-person attendance, online participation, and on-demand learning. To enhance the convenience for administrators handling applications and participants enrolled in these programs, the organization has decided to implement the innovative seminar management system, "manaable."

What is 'manaable'?

"Manaable" is a cloud-based seminar management system that allows organizations to comprehensively manage seminar applications, attendance, and billing online. Through personalized dashboards, both administrators and participants can access learning management system (LMS) features that allow for tracking attendance information, checking history, and issuing certificates upon course completion.

This system is provided by manaable Co., Ltd., located in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Key Features of 'manaable'

1. Integrated Online Management: Users can manage all aspects of the seminar experience from registration to attendance and billing.
2. Paperless Billing: The system promotes a more sustainable, paperless approach to invoicing.
3. LMS Functionality: Users can access comprehensive learning management features to enhance their educational experience.
4. Group Management Capabilities: Companies and organizations can manage multiple participants more efficiently.

Additionally, there are no extra fees associated with this system; users can access the new functionalities at the traditional seminar fees with a one-time registration on first use.

Improving Administrative Efficiency

For administrators, "manaable" offers significant enhancements:

• - A simplified approval process for registrations.
• - Real-time access to registration status, participant details, and attendance records.
• - Downloadable invoices and receipts, improving efficiency.
• - Online management of participant changes and communication, reducing administrative overhead.

Enhancing Participant Experience

For participants, the system introduces features that improve the overall experience:

• - Access to personal LMS for checking necessary information such as Zoom URLs.
• - Ability to ask questions during on-demand courses.
• - Instant issuance of completion certificates through the system.

The Purpose of JMA's Seminars
