【大学教職員対象】2024年度SD共同研修プログラム
「大学職員のパーパスとキャリアデザイン」参加申込受付中です。

The situation surrounding university staff as a job is changing drastically. From 2023 to 2065, the number of 18-year-olds will decrease from 1.09 million to 680,000. As the rate of university enrollment increases, the appearance of students studying at your university will also change. In the future, there is a possibility that the number of employees who will play an active role in different roles and work styles will increase. The social significance of the duties of university staff will also increase. The university is currently in a period of transition. That’s probably why more and more people are feeling anxious and dissatisfied at work. This training is designed for those of you who work in such a university organization.

・Objectively understand the peculiarities of the university as an organization, and know the true nature of anxiety and dissatisfaction related to work.
Reflect on your career and explore what is most important to you.
– Think about how to work in your own way at your current workplace.

The aim of this training is to reconsider the work and careers of university staff through the above contents. I would like to make the content useful not only for the participants’ own careers, but also for advice to colleagues, subordinates, juniors, and students who aspire to become university employees.
We plan to give a variety of lectures and work, but we will make it easy for people to participate. Regardless of your age, position, department, etc., if you are interested in the ideal career of a university employee, please feel free to apply.

Business Overview

As the globalization of higher education accelerates, such as the enhancement of support for international students and the promotion of collaborative projects with overseas universities, the English proficiency of university faculty and staff has become indispensable as a basic ability.

Features of this training
★ At Universiti Sains Malaysia, students will attend lectures on culture, history, and ethnicity in English with local students and deepen exchanges with local students.

★ At CEMACS, the Marine Centre of Universiti Universiti Malaysia of Sciences, you will observe the plants and organisms that inhabit the waters of Penang and learn about marine surveys and SDGs activities.
★ We will visit local Japanese companies and hear from local employees about the difficulties and rewards of working overseas, and we will have a question-and-answer session. We will also take a tour of the factory.
★ Based on the lectures they received at the university, they will explore Georgetown, a world cultural heritage site, and the city in groups. Challenge yourself to a puzzle-solving game targeting Penang Island.
★ Breakfast is served at the hotel, and lunch is served at four different cuisines (Nyonya, Chinese, Indian and Malay) to learn about the diverse food culture.
★ For dinner, we will guide you to several nearby hawker centres (food stall villages) and night markets, so you can enjoy Malaysia’s national food cheaply and safely.
★ Two university consortium staff members will lead the trip from the beginning to the end, so even students who are new to overseas can participate with confidence.

Highlights of Penang
Penang in Malaysia is also very safe, and it is the fourth safest city in Southeast Asia after Singapore. In addition, the cost of living is very cheap, and even in recent years, when the yen is depreciating, it is very cheap at 1/3 of Japan, and you can enjoy lunch and dinner within 300 to 500 yen. In addition, there are three main ethnic groups living in Malaysia, Malay, Chinese, and Indian, but the people are very friendly and many of them are pro-Japan, so you can stay with peace of mind. In addition, English is used as a semi-official language after Malay, and since tourists from all over the world visit Penang, English is almost always spoken in public places such as convenience stores and supermarkets. The climate is also very warm, around 25 degrees Celsius in the morning and around 30 degrees Celsius in the afternoon, and there is little precipitation from November to March, making it the best season to visit.

The “Contemporary Liberal Arts Course: The Present and Future of Space Migration” was launched last year with the concept of “Even adults want to learn!” and received overwhelming satisfaction from participants. This year, students will learn about the current state of manned space science and technology with an eye on the 2030s and beyond, along with cutting-edge research results and corporate ideas, as well as renewed content. To think about space migration is to think about the global environment, food and living space, mobility technology, the human body and medicine, and business and society. Curiosity for the future. Learn what you want to learn.

[Kyoto College Recurrent Education Program] 【Extension of Application Period】What is necessary for modern human assistance: Creation of new areas and issues

The application period for the 2023 course “What is necessary for modern human assistance: Generating new areas and issues” has been extended.
Please take this opportunity to apply.


I think we are becoming a society that is difficult to live in. In response to this, a variety of practical and clinical initiatives are being promoted as a social issue to realize human well-being and happiness. In fields that are traditionally divided into occupational areas, such as medical care, nursing, education, psychology, welfare, and the judiciary, there is an increasing need for multidisciplinary collaboration and collaborative efforts. In the academic dimension as well, there are challenges in new areas. We will integrate it as “interpersonal assistance” and learn from the knowledge of the front line that explores human potential. It is the development of knowledge where practice, academia, and clinical practice intersect. Broaden the horizons of professionals. We are looking forward to taking this course if you are a professional who continues to learn.
