ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Adopts 'amoibe OJT' for Junior Engineer Training

## Overview
The OJT program 'amoibe OJT,' provided by amoibe Inc., has been adopted by ITOCHU Techno-Solutions Corporation (CTC). To strengthen practical training for new engineers in a remote work environment, CTC introduced the 'Development Engineer Java Course' and the 'Infrastructure Engineer AWS Course.'

## Background: Challenges in Junior Training During the Remote Era
With the shift to remote work post-COVID-19, an 'OJT gap' emerged, where new employees struggle to seek advice and mentors find it difficult to initiate contact. Within CTC's Wide-Area & Social Infrastructure Business Group, it became clear that while e-learning could bridge gaps in knowledge, it was insufficient for mastering the 'practical practices' required of project members.

## Results of Implementation
The amoibe OJT program was implemented for new engineers hired in fiscal year 2025. By providing a safe, simulated environment separated from actual operations, the following results were achieved:

- **Immersive Experience**: Participants gained the confidence and immediate readiness required for real-world projects.
- **Self-Directed Action**: Engineers demonstrated the ability to use AI to research and overcome challenges independently.
- **Shared Communication Language**: The methodologies learned in amoibe have become a shared 'language' within the team, expected to reduce communication costs.

## Comments
Masaki Sakaino from ITOCHU Techno-Solutions praised the program for allowing trainees to quickly master project-member etiquette in a space separate from actual work. Hayato Shinjo, CEO of amoibe, expressed honor in supporting their transformation in talent development.
