The private sector training for teachers program was held by the Keizai Koho Center (Japan Institute for Social and Economic Affairs) for three days between July 31 and August 2, 2018. The program has been implemented as an activity to promote dialog between economic and educational circles. This year, Kajima marked its 10th anniversary of accepting participants for this program. A group of 20 people attended the program in 2018, including elementary, junior high, and high school vice-principals that belong to the Kanagawa Prefectural Board of Education, just like last year.

On the first day, the participants attended a classroom lecture on the construction industry and Kajima and then took a tour of Kajima Technical Research Institute, in which they experienced the latest technologies. On the second day, they took a tour of a building site and then they were introduced to Kajima's human resource nurturing and training. On the third day, they took a tour of a civil engineering site and engaged in group work to review the three-day program.

On a tour of this construction site that is usually off-limits, many participants commented that safety measures and other efforts could also be applied at school. Despite their differences as a private company and schools, the activity revealed several shared issues, such as human resource nurturing, and many opinions were exchanged.

Going forward, Kajima will continue to accept participants in private sector training as a social contribution activity to help educate the next generation.
