JET Programme – Life After JET Survey
We have been asked to forward the following request to all JET Programme alumni members from the UK;
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) in Tokyo and the Embassy of Japan in the UK are currently gathering information from former JET Programme participants regarding their current places of employment. This data will be used purely for research purposes. Please click on this link and let us know what industry you currently work for. If possible, please also provide your contact details and information about your JET placement.
Information we gather will be treated as confidential between MOFA and the Embassy of Japan in the UK. We look forward to hearing from you.
New JETAA Chapters
If you are interested in setting up a new JETAA Chapter, please get in touch with Josy at chairman@jetaa.org.uk. We have had some interest in new Chapters for the North West and South East. If you live in one of these areas and would like to get involved, let me know!
Please ensure that you are signed up for the mailshot for the correct chapter to make sure you hear about events in your area. You can also follow JETAA London and Scotland on Twitter – @jetaalondon and @jetaascotland.
The Sumo run
This year the sumo run will be held both in Manchester and in London. JETAA Scotland is fielding a team for the Manchester run and the London chapter is planning to put a team together for the London event. If you would like to join us, please email chairman@jetaa.org.uk so we can arrange a JETAA Alumni dream team.
If you fancy joining the run on your own, you can still benefit from FREE registration if you let them know you are a member of JETAA. The discount code for this is: JETAA11
Gemin-i is a hard working educational charity, and the sumo run is a hilarious day out, so sign up and have run running around dressed as a sumo!
