Keishin Group's Five Schools Embrace a New Form of International Education

Keishin Group (Shinjuku, Tokyo; Chairman: Mitsutoshi Kobayashi) announced that all five of its schools have sponsored the 'Gratitude and Learning Tree Planting Project' organized by Digital Knowledge Co., Ltd. to commemorate its 30th anniversary. In March 2026, cherry trees were planted at the Japan Digital University (JDU) campus in Uzbekistan. This milestone aligns Keishin Group's mission of 'Creating the Future' with the practice of 'International Contribution through Education.' The Keishin Group has been responsible for training essential personnel in four specialized fields: medical care, welfare, rehabilitation, and child education. While these fields may seem different, they all involve 'work related to human growth and happiness.' Digital Knowledge's project is not just corporate social responsibility, but a question of 'what can we do as educational institutions?' The group's participation reflects a shared philosophy of what should be passed on to the next generation as institutions dedicated to training professionals. Planting and nurturing 'cherry trees' in Uzbekistan, far from Japan, serves as an experience for students to rethink the meaning of education, responsibility, and joy.
