learningBOX to Offer Free Harassment Prevention Training Content for Club Activity Coaches and Instructors

learningBOX Inc., the developer and operator of the e-learning system learningBOX, headquartered in Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture and led by CEO Yoichiro Nishimura, announced that it will begin distributing free harassment prevention education content for club activity instructors and coaches on Tuesday, May 12, 2026, in support of the activities of the Sports Harassment ZERO Association. Inappropriate coaching has become a serious social issue in club activities and sports settings. With its commitment to delivering learning to everyone, learningBOX aims to promote a shift in awareness among instructors through e-learning and contribute to creating environments where anyone can participate in sports with peace of mind. In recent years, power harassment and excessive coaching have become major topics of debate in the sports world. In club activities in particular, problems have emerged in which athletes suffer deep mental and physical harm due to instructors’ lack of knowledge or unconscious words and actions. In response, the Sports Harassment ZERO Association, which aims to eliminate sports harassment, and learningBOX, which supports education through IT, have launched this project together. Through this initiative, learningBOX will distribute harassment prevention content for club activity coaches and instructors supervised by the Sports Harassment ZERO Association in a format available to all learningBOX users, including those on the free plan. The content covers human rights knowledge that club activity coaches and instructors should know, basic knowledge about sports harassment, safeguarding, and related topics. It is intended for club activity advisors, external coaches, and people involved in sports organizations. Users can import the target content into their own learning environment for free from within learningBOX. Mayumi Taniguchi of the Sports Harassment ZERO Association commented that the association is delivering this material to help create environments where everyone involved in sports can perform with confidence and peace of mind. She noted that human rights, sports harassment, and safeguarding are topics people can easily assume they already understand, but that correct understanding and action are what protect the field. She expressed hope that each person will learn, reflect, and put that knowledge into practice to build a healthier and richer sports culture together. learningBOX stated that it aims to use technology to eliminate educational disparities and realize a society where everyone can learn equally. In this initiative, the company is not only providing tools but also promoting the power of education to solve social issues. By creating an environment where busy club activity instructors can learn easily and thoroughly from smartphones or computers, learningBOX will support effective harassment prevention. learningBOX Inc. is an EdTech company based in Tatsuno City in southwestern Hyogo Prefecture.
