Link Academy and K's Denki Technical Support Sign Partnership Agreement to Maximize Learning Opportunities for Skills Required in the AI Era

Link Academy Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Joji Yokoyama, hereinafter "our company"), which operates "Total Career School," and K's Denki Technical Support Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Mito City, Ibaraki Prefecture; President: Naoto Osaka), which operates "Hiyoko PC School," have signed a partnership agreement. To maximize learning opportunities for advanced IT skills such as generative AI and specialized qualifications, lesson content from "AVIVA PC School" and "DAIEI Qualification School" will be offered starting at five "Hiyoko PC School" locations.

Background of the Partnership

Due to technological innovations, including the rapid spread of generative AI, companies are increasingly required to transform their operations, improve productivity, and adapt to new business models.

In particular, fostering "personnel who can utilize AI and advanced digital technologies" and nurturing "specialized personnel" who will remain valuable even as technology evolves are important themes for both companies and individuals. However, "personnel shortages" and "widening disparities" pose challenges.

While operating "AVIVA" and "DAIEI," our company has continuously sought to expand support to help more business professionals adapt to change and grow into "personnel required in the AI era" who can drive their own operational improvements and value creation.

Therefore, we have now partnered with K's Denki Technical Support, which also operates a "digital human resource development" school business, to provide high-quality IT lessons and qualification lessons to a wider audience nationwide.

We aim to expand the development of IT, DX, and specialized personnel in Japan by leveraging the knowledge each company has cultivated through classroom operations and corporate training.

"AVIVA PC School," with extensive training experience for individuals and corporations nationwide

As a leading PC school in the industry, "AVIVA" provides services to over 15,000 customers annually through more than 100 directly managed schools, cloud schools (online), and partner schools nationwide. Through corporate training for over 1,000 companies and unique diagnostic services, we achieve high student satisfaction, improved comprehension, and maximized learning motivation for both individuals and corporations.

We aim to expand the pool of IT and DX personnel in Japan through diverse content including generative AI, groupware such as Microsoft 365 and GWS, office software, graphic design, web design, programming, and CAD, combined with lesson methods cultivated over many years in the school business, and support from career navigators who assist with learning and career advancement.

"DAIEI Qualification School," with a wealth of success in helping students pass everything from national qualifications to civil service exams

As a comprehensive qualification acquisition school, "DAIEI Qualification School" supports many students in obtaining qualifications and advancing their careers through its nationwide campuses and online learning services. We offer a wide range of qualification courses, including preparation for civil service exams, national qualifications such as real estate notary and administrative scrivener, and business qualifications such as bookkeeping and small and medium-sized enterprise management consultants. Through our long-standing instructional expertise and support system, we have achieved abundant passing rates and high student satisfaction.

We aim to foster career development through qualification acquisition and nurture individuals' potential by providing personalized learning plans tailored to each person's goals and learning situation, and by offering the support of school counselors who assist with continued learning.

"Hiyoko PC School," supporting digital utilization for a wide range of generations at K's Denki stores
