From "Hiring" to "Creating". Neyagawa City and Career Field Sign Partnership for "Regional Circular Model" to Train Childcare Workers Locally with Zero Budget

On May 14, 2026, Career Field Inc. signed a partnership agreement with Neyagawa City in Osaka Prefecture and the Neyagawa City Private Nursery Association to create a system for training and securing childcare workers locally. This "regional circular model" addresses the national shortage of childcare workers, worsened by declining enrollment in training schools. By collaborating with local governments, the initiative supports workers from qualification acquisition to employment and retention within the region. Notably, it utilizes existing public resources, requiring "zero budget" from the municipality.
