3 hubs 100hr training Housing covered

Experience the real Japan, build practical career skills and give back to a local community. Flexible and low-stakes, so you can test the waters in the classroom over a summer break or gap semester. You won't be dropped straight into a classroom, and you won't do it alone. Support runs the whole way through.
