manebi Co., Ltd. Aims to Create a World Where Anyone, Regardless of Age, Gender, or Environment, Can Find Their True Calling Through Learning "Anytime, From Anywhere."

manebi Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director CEO: Tomoya Tajima) operates "manebi e-learning," a human resource development platform equipped with approximately 8,000 educational materials and AI, under the vision of "making life development commonplace in society."

Our dream is to create a world in the era of a 100-year lifespan where anyone, regardless of age, gender, background, or environment, can start learning "anytime" from the moment they decide they "want to," and truly find the "job they want to do."

Why We Embrace This Dream

In today's rapidly changing world, Japan's working population is declining, and with the rise of DX (Digital Transformation) and AI, the skills required are constantly evolving. In this "100-year life era," it is no longer enough to graduate from school and get a job; lifelong re-learning (reskilling) has become essential.

But what is the reality?

"I want to acquire new skills, but I don't know where to start." "Learning time and opportunities are limited due to my living area or family circumstances." "I give up on new challenges because of my age or gender."

Even with motivation, many people are still unable to take a step towards self-realization due to disparities in environment, information, and resources.

Through our e-learning system, we have supported the education of thousands of companies. As we have accompanied the growth of employees alongside HR and general affairs managers, we have repeatedly witnessed the fact that "with appropriate learning opportunities, people can grow and shine dramatically, no matter when they start or how old they are."

That is why we have come to strongly desire a future where "an infrastructure for equal learning for everyone" becomes commonplace in society, starting with corporate education support.

The World manebi Aims to Realize: "Anyone Can Learn, Anytime"

In the world where our dream comes true, the division between learning and career will disappear.

Whether living in a rural area, in the midst of childcare or nursing care, or even after retirement. Even with career barriers due to gender or changes in life stages, the moment one thinks, "I want to do this job" or "I want to acquire this skill," the optimal learning route (course map) tailored to each individual's current situation and goals will open up "anytime."

It will be a society where everyone can learn effortlessly from a wealth of content in a format that suits them (videos, slides, drills, etc.), where their learning data and acquired skills are fairly evaluated, and where everyone can fully demonstrate their abilities in the "job they truly want to do," regardless of age, gender, or career history.

A world where "learning" is not a special effort but blends into daily life, and everyone can engage in "life development" as a matter of course. That is the future we aim for.

Current Initiatives Towards Realizing the Dream ### We are already making progress to realize this grand dream.

The "manebi e-learning" currently provided offers approximately 8,000 rich educational materials on an all-you-can-learn basis, and an AI system proposes optimal training plans for each learner. Furthermore, the AI-powered automatic subtitle translation function supports the learning of multinational talent.

First, at the corporate level, our goal is to reduce the burden on HR and general affairs managers who struggle with human resource development, and to deliver the joy of growth – "I understand!" and "I can do it!" – to as many business professionals as possible. And to create a system where education and evaluation are linked, ensuring fair rewards.

Each of manebi's current services is a powerful driving force transforming our envisioned future into reality. We will continue to combine the power of technology with human warmth to build a "life development" platform where everyone can shine in their own way.

manebi supports April Dream, an initiative to make April 1st a day to announce dreams. This press release is the dream of "manebi Co., Ltd."
