Cultural Outreach Comments Off on Hey current JETs! Let your JTEs know about this training opportunity in the US

Update:  The program is also being promoted on the National Federation of Prefectural English Teachers’ Organizations website (http://www.zen-ei-ren.com/).

From JET alum Daniel Stone (Saitama-ken, Kawaguchi-shi, 2004-07), who seeks helps from current JETs in reaching Japanese Teachers of English in Japan: 

I’m working on a project for a non-profit in Columbus, OH. This pilot project is to bring Japanese Teachers of English to Columbus to train for two weeks this summer. While we have the support of the Japanese Consulate in Detroit, Michigan who has used their channels of distribution to advertise this program in Japan, we are looking to increase our marketing by conducting a grassroots effort and ask for your help.

To learn more about this project, please visit the Columbus International Program website: http://www.cipcolumbus.org/training-programs.html. We ask that you share this information with your former JTE team teaching partners, board of education contracting agencies any anybody else who might be interested in participating in this program.

Deadline to apply is May 1st, 2013.

If anyone has any questions, I can be contacted at stoneone19@yahoo.com.

If there is anything I can help you with, please let me know.
