Internship and Volunteer Opportunities

2025 May 23

At EIFJ, we provide internship opportunities for students to observe classes and school operations, learn exciting jobs under the guidance of experienced teachers, officials from the Ministry of National Education, and management. There is a high demand from institutions and enterprises every year, which confirms the high quality of our support. We can also exchange Japanese contracts between the school and interns, and the existence of internships, which is legal in Japan, is reported to the Japanese supervisory authorities. EIFJ offers internships for students in various fields such as FLE, communication, human resources, marketing, IT, foreign languages, and history. The implementation hours and work tasks are clearly defined in contracts, based on mutual agreement between the interns and the school. Unfortunately, EIFJ is currently not in a position to pay salaries to trainees, but if the internships are successful, it can create a talent pool for future possibilities for hiring. Internship duration ranges from 2 to 6 months.
