■Marketing (Introductory)

The environment surrounding companies is constantly changing. “Business as usual” is less likely to lead to “business as usual”. This is because there is always competition in the market, and we strive every day to create better services. The development of IT technology has changed the concept of time and cost, and the number of players in the industry has increased, and innovative services have been created.
In other words, if you continue to do business as usual, you will be left behind in the market.
So what should you do?
It’s about learning how to think in response to changes in the environment.
That’s the marketing mindset.
As the environment changes, who are our customers and what kind of problems will we solve? What strengths will we develop in order to achieve this? It’s simple, but you need to repeat this kind of thinking and respond to change. This marketing training will be a weapon for companies and universities to survive.
However, there is no point in memorizing knowledge. “How can it be used in practice?” is important.
 In this training, you will learn the ability to think about marketing by focusing on “how to use knowledge” after holding down the basic knowledge.
Also, I would like to emphasize this, but in order to increase the effectiveness of marketing thinking, it is important to increase the number of members in the organization who can discuss in the common language of marketing.
By all means, please recruit members from the same department and other members of the organization to participate in the training.
Let’s take this opportunity to learn management methods that will lead to solving problems in university management!

■Basics of Accounting for School Corporations ~Super Introductory~

In recent years, school corporations have been subjected to drastic changes, and their activities have also changed from “management” to “management”. Accounting is said to be the “center of management” and “the compass that guides the organization,” and the information generated by accounting is indispensable for organizations and their people. However, on the other hand, I think that there are many people who are not good at accounting, such as “I’m not in charge of accounting or accounting,” “I’m not good at numbers,” or “Accounting is the domain of a professional.”
In this course, for those who are new to accounting or who are not good at it, we will focus on understanding the basic concept of accounting by comparing school accounting and corporate accounting.

■Basic knowledge of research support ~Understand the super basics of research support~

What is research support? We will study the super basics of research support!

When you talk about “research support,” you may have a “rough” image of being involved in work related to external funds such as “Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research.” A university is both an “educational institution” and a “research institution,” and staff members other than research departments are also involved in “research.” Therefore, even staff who are not involved in research support work can understand research support and know specific actions for research support, which will lead to the realization of better research.
In this training, you will learn the basics of research support in a simple way, touching on the outline of research support and external funding. What does “research support” do? Let’s study together!
《Achievement Goal》
(1) Explain what research support is.
(2) Understand the outline of external funding.
(3) Understand research support and think about how to get involved in research.

■IR Training (Basics)

Nearly 10 years have passed since IR (Institutional Research) attracted attention in the higher education industry, and in recent years, “IR” has become increasingly popular. However, there may be many universities that have set up IR-related departments or assigned people in charge, but they are not functioning well or are not making use of them. In this training, we will once again ask questions such as “What is IR?” and “What are the necessary conditions for IR to function?” I will talk about “IR functions and utilization” with examples from lecturers. Please take home as many IR knowledge and examples of initiatives as possible and use them in your own IR activities.
