About This Site

1.Background

For foreigners who want to work in Japan or take the next step after technical intern training, gathering and organizing the necessary information in Japanese is not easy. Government websites use many technical terms, and social media includes posts whose accuracy is unclear. We have often heard people ask, "In the end, what should I start with, and where?"

SSW Japan Study Portal is a study and information site created to reduce those initial doubts and worries as much as possible. You can check in one place how to study, application steps, how to find work in Japan, and other information you need. By summarizing primary information clearly and providing it in multiple languages, we aim to support both the process before going to Japan and life after arriving as smoothly as possible.

2.Use Cases
