Global Career Series

“Global Career Series” provides online learning opportunity to middle and high school students who are interested in paving their way through their future in the global world. It is an interactive educational program where participants can learn about professional work and experience from the people who are globally active in various fields and study-abroad life from the students studying at overseas universities, and also ask the speakers questions directly. This gives participants not only the opportunity to think about their future life planning but also vital knowledge that may help to navigate future global career. Currently programs is held in Japanese language. This program’s funding provided by the United States Government. You will need zoom or Teams environment. Below is the 1st Global Career Series kickoff event by Fumiko Sasaki, JSIE director.

“Global Student Peer Roundtable” provides online discussion opportunity among peer high school students from various parts of the world. JSIE directors will facilitate the discussion and help exchange various ideas among students from different background. Each session, JSIE will set a discussion theme and call applications. Applications are first-come-first-serve-basis. Students can propose future theme/issues of their interest. The Roundtable discussion will take approximately once in 3-4 months, and any high school students can participate online and engage in group discussions. We can accommodate English and/or Japanese speakers.  This Roundtable series provides participants not only the opportunity to share your own views, but also get inspired from how others view the world differently. JSIE thinks that such opportunity will impact your thinking that may help to navigate future global career. You will need zoom or Teams environment. Please state your name, school (location as well), grade, self-introduction, and areas you are interested, and send email to info@jsie.net.
