Program Overview
Due to its great popularity every year, please register early! From 5/18 onward.
As globalization in higher education accelerates — with enhanced support for international students and the promotion of collaborative projects with overseas universities — the era has truly arrived in which English proficiency is an essential basic skill for university faculty and staff.
The Consortium of Universities in Kyoto conducts this training program not only to improve the English proficiency of faculty and staff at member institutions to meet these times, but also to foster greater motivation for future language learning.
