JET Program
JET Program Information
The Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Programme aims to promote grass roots internationalization at the local level by inviting young overseas graduates to assist in international exchange and foreign language education in local governments, boards of education and elementary, junior and senior high schools throughout Japan. It seeks to foster ties between Japanese citizens (mainly youth) and JET participants at the person-to-person level.

If you were unable to attend the orientation or want more information, please download the session handouts below. We believe this information is very valuable to help newly-elected JETs prepare for their departure and as they settle into life in Japan.
