FY2021

Business Overview

In the 2018 academic year, the name of “Kyoto FD Executive School” was changed to “University Executive School”.

Since its establishment in 1995, shortly after its establishment, the University Consortium Kyoto has been promoting FD activities in the Kyoto region together with member universities as an organizational initiative for faculty members to improve and enhance their teaching content and methods.
This project has been held since 2010 as a study group for university executives, including the presidents of member schools.
In the meantime, SD became mandatory due to the revision of the Standards for the Establishment of Universities in April 2017, and while university executives are required to provide training not only for FD but also for university management in general, the name of this project was changed to “University Executive School” in 2018 in order to cover not only FD but also a wide range of themes related to university management in general.
