Are you interested in Japan? Are you interested in living in Japan and teaching English?  If so, come to the informational meeting held at the University of Pennsylvania.  The Japanese Consulate in New York will send two people to the Philadelphia area to provide information and to answer all the questions you might have about the program.

The Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Programme, now in its 26th year, is aimed at promoting grass-roots international exchange between Japan and other nations. The number of countries sending participants has risen over the years, as has the number of participants. In 2012, the Programme welcomed 4,360 participants from 40 countries.

The JET Programme has gained high acclaim both domestically and internationally for its role in advancing mutual understanding and for being one of the world's largest exchange programmes. We hope many more individuals and regions will participate on the JET Programme during the 21st century so that even more progress can be made in the internationalization of our local communities.
