JET Program - Accepting Applications


For those who are interested in the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program,  

 

The application period for the annual JET Program is approaching. This year, however, there will be no JET Information Session on the campus of William Paterson University. Instead, the JET information session will be held virtually by the Consulate General of Japan in New York. Please read the following instructions to attend a general JET Information Session. 

 

The Consulate General of Japan in New York is pleased to invite the students of William Paterson University to our upcoming virtual information sessions for the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program, a competitive employment opportunity managed by the government of Japan that allows young professionals to live and work in cities, towns, and villages throughout Japan. 

  

The sessions will be hosted via Zoom Webinar and is a rare chance to hear directly from a JET Program Coordinator as well as former JET Program participants, wherever you are.

ABOUT THE JET PROGRAM  

 

Founded in 1987, JET has sent more than 70,000 participants from around the globe (including more than 35,800 Americans) to work in schools, boards of education, and government offices throughout Japan. Being a JET is an opportunity to work and to represent the United States as cultural ambassadors to Japan. Most participants serve as Assistant Language Teachers (ALTs) and work in public and private schools; some work as Coordinators for International Relations (CIRs) as interpreters/translators. New applications are accepted each fall.
