Management education

As management education, we provide training by level for those promoted based on the functional qualification system and training by role for new managers of the organization. The training programs are designed to enhance the interpersonal skills, influence, organizational vitality, and performance management skills required of mid-level employees and middle management. The role-specific training consists of two stages: one is to learn practical knowledge based on examples of personnel evaluation and labor management along with leadership knowledge, and the other is to further improve management skills by improving communication skills based on coaching skills.

Technology and skills education

In cooperation with distance learning institutions, we have provided approximately 230 opportunities for our employees to take courses in order to cultivate their professional abilities, on-the-job capabilities, and operational performance. Many of our employees have participated in these courses each year.

Global education

In our company, where overseas sales account for about 90% of our sales, the development of global human resources is an essential task, and we are focusing on English education as the basis for this. In addition to raising the level of distance learning through e-learning and smartphone applications, we are also offering online English conversation training, organized into classes by TOEIC score, especially for employees who need English for work. In addition, for employees who have decided to be assigned overseas, we provide pre-assignment training so that they can live and work smoothly at their new location.
