We must also prepare for a variety of disasters. In response to these challenges in modern society, various practices are being developed to address social issues that will bring about human peace and happiness. Fields traditionally divided into fields such as medicine, nursing, education, psychology, welfare, and justice are now calling for multidisciplinary collaboration and cooperation. Even in the academic field, we are venturing into new areas. By integrating these fields into &#8220;interpersonal assistance,&#8221; we will learn from frontline knowledge that explores human potential. This is the development of knowledge at the intersection of practice, academia, and clinical practice. It will broaden the horizons of professionals. This is the final year of this three-year program. As a culmination, we will offer further learning to those who have taken the course so far. We welcome working adults who continue to learn.<\/p>\n<h3>Event Overview<\/h3>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"taCenter\" width=\"80\">Eligibility<\/td>\n<td>\u25cfTeachers, social workers, mental health and welfare workers, clinical psychologists, licensed psychologists, doctors, public health nurses, nurses, registered dietitians, childcare workers, judicial officials, and other people in interpersonal support positions. <br \/>\n\u25cfCorporate personnel and general affairs staff involved in human services. <br \/>\n\u25cfVolunteer coordinators and other people active in NPOs and NGOs <br \/>\n. \u25cfUniversity faculty and staff involved in human resource development in these fields.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"taCenter\">How to participate<\/td>\n<td><strong>On-demand lectures [9 sessions total]<\/strong><br \/> <br \/>\nViewing period: Wednesday, October 1, 2025 &#8211; Wednesday, December 31, 2025 <br \/>\n<strong>In-person seminars [1 session total]\u3000<u>Capacity: First 30 people<\/u><\/strong><br \/> <br \/>\nDate: Sunday, December 14, 2025, 1:30 PM &#8211; 3:00 PM <br \/>\nLocation: Campus Plaza Kyoto, 2nd floor hall <br \/>\n<span class=\"fBold\">Note: <u>Only on-demand lecture participants can participate in the seminars.<\/u><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"taCenter\">Tuition<\/td>\n<td>\u25cfOn-demand lectures (set of 9) 9,000 yen (tax included) <br \/>\n\u25cfSeminars (face-to-face) 1,000 yen (tax included)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Lecture content<\/h3>\n<h4>On-demand lectures<\/h4>\n<table class=\"tbl_recurrent\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Theme: Leaving No One Behind: Disaster Preparedness for Human Services Professionals <br \/>\nLecturer: Akiko Kurotaki (Associate Professor, Faculty of Nursing, Kyoto Tachibana University)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Japan is a disaster-prone country, and unfortunately, in recent years, disasters have occurred before we can forget about them. People working in the human services profession are often required to protect those they serve while also maintaining their own safety during disasters.

While this system is operated with the goal of promoting the welfare of children, this course explains post-adoption support, which is sometimes overlooked.

The seminar aims to foster <br \/>\nintellectual exchange with people from various professions, deepening our thinking through dialogue with participating instructors. We will exchange opinions on the types of specialized and clinical knowledge needed to address the needs of individuals facing modern interpersonal assistance. We will also identify the societal challenges that these needs represent. <br \/>\nOver drinks and snacks, this is a forum for free discussion in small groups with the program&#8217;s instructors.
