日本語習得

Acquiring Japanese language skills, in addition to other specialized knowledge and skills, will help students become active internationally.
To be active in the 21st century's global society, regardless of oneユs own nationality and country, the acquisition of foreign language skills is becoming increasingly essential. It is not enough, however, to simply have written and oral language proficiency. Only by acquiring "advanced knowledge and skills," with the help of foreign language skills, and by being accepted as competitive in society is it possible to be active in the front lines of any field of business. We at the Jikei Group provide education in various areas to foster personnel who satisfy the needs of society and industry.
