ONE CAREER Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Naoyuki Miyashita), operator of the new graduate recruitment service 'ONE CAREER,' has been selected as a verification partner for the 'Survey and Analysis Work for Promoting National Entrepreneurship Cultivation' (Contractor: Deloitte Tohmatsu), a project commissioned by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). Following FY2025, the company will continue and strengthen its efforts into FY2026.
### Background of MEXT's Initiative
MEXT defines entrepreneurship as 'the spirit to take action beyond given environments and create new value in the face of various difficulties and changes.' Since FY2022, MEXT has initiated the 'National Entrepreneurship Cultivation Promotion Project' to foster this spirit nationwide. The project aims to build platforms for autonomous and continuous information collection and dissemination involving private companies. From FY2025, verification has been underway with contractors to support the autonomy of student communities.
### FY2025 Achievements in Entrepreneurship Cultivation
Last year, One Career named its entrepreneurship education program 'Career Boot Camp' and held 41 sessions between April and December 2025, with over 1,000 students participating in total. The program, conducted in both online and offline formats, consisted of a 'Foundational Course' for 2nd-year students and 'Specialized Courses' (Marketing and Venture) for 3rd-year students. A special lecture by Futa Sakai, a human resources expert from DeNA, was also held, with the YouTube recording reaching over 23,000 views as of April 2026, contributing to raising interest in entrepreneurship. Additionally, in collaboration with Tohoku University, the company conducted a credited lecture series which saw high praise from 121 participating 1st and 2nd-year students. Post-program measurements based on MEXT's 'Japan version Entre Comp v1' showed high satisfaction ratings of 92–99% across various indicators.
### FY2026 Outlook: Program Expansion and New University Collaborations
This year, building on last year's results, One Career plans to expand its programs to further contribute to entrepreneurship cultivation:
- Content: Adding a new 'Sales Course' to the existing courses, totaling four themes.
