Inside the report
This report is based on research of Japan’s human capital needs by a number of Japanese Government and non-government organisations, as well as interviews by Austrade with human resource departments of 27 major companies committed to developing globally-literate human capital.
The findings of this report reveal wide scope for engagement with corporates and tertiary education institutions in Japan such as:
- short-term training courses combined with internships
- on-the-job training for Japanese employees posted to Australia
- customised English language training incorporating broader aspects of cross-cultural understanding and international business
- postgraduate study of up to one-year in business-related fields
- partnerships with Japanese tertiary education institutions to exploit the growing demand for structured short-term study abroad experiences
- partnerships with in-market providers offering GHC-related training to operate joint-programs
