■ Background of Seminar Planning

As the transfer of skills to young people becomes an urgent issue, methods to reduce the training burden on frontline leaders are required.

Currently, while DX (Digital Transformation) is progressing in the field at many companies, the transfer of skills (knowledge transfer) to younger employees and mid-career hires has become a major challenge. Traditional OJT has a strong tendency to rely on the skills of individual instructors, leading to problems such as differences in growth speed depending on who is being taught, or an excessive burden on the teaching side. Under the mission of contributing to the development of the industrial world, JMAC planned this seminar to break away from such person-dependent training and spread 'education as a system' where anyone can produce results.

We look forward to your participation.
