Interested in teaching and working in Japan
after graduation?
Come find out about the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Programme, a Japanese government program aimed at promoting grassroots international exchange. JET offers two types of positions: Assistant Langauge Teachers (ALT) who help teach English in primary and secondary schools, and Coordinator of International Relations (CIR) who help coordinate international programs in city and town halls throughout Japan. Japanese language is NOT required for most positions.
Recent JET alumni will speak about their experiences and the JET Program Coordinator will provide information on the application process for positions that start in the summer of 2012.
