While dental clinics were once said to be "more numerous than convenience stores," the future shortage of dentists is certain due to the suppression of the number of dentists and retirements accompanying an aging population. In this context, oral hygiene management is directly linked to QOL (Quality of Life), making the training of dental hygienists, who are the breakthrough in this field, an unavoidable issue for extending the healthy life expectancy of the region.
Especially in the Chugoku-Shikoku region, the effective job opening ratio for dental hygienists is extremely high, at approximately 20 times, making the training of dental hygienists an urgent task for regional medical care. Our school will play a role in filling the blank areas of "Kure, Higashihiroshima, and Fuchu," which are population growth areas but lacked training schools.
The biggest feature is the "morning-only classes" style, which is rare nationwide. By creating an environment where students can aim to acquire national qualifications in three years while working, we also support career changes from various professions and re-education after university graduation.
In the era of 100-year lifespans, we aim to contribute to the construction of a sustainable regional society through education as a "new style of school" that responds to societal changes where people work even after the age of 70.
