Nursing students, in particular, benefit greatly from the system of modern nursing facilities in Japan for practicing skills and developing careers. Cooperation with Tatsuokakai Medical Group allows students to get the greatest nursing skills throughout their professional internship under the supervision of chief nurses, allowing them to strengthen their overall abilities. At the same time, they are encouraged to take the nursing profession-specific skills test in order to work long-term in Japan following graduation. The pathway is expected to accept 10 students each year beginning in 2022.
Global Design will build an internship and work program in Japan for Nursing and IT students beginning in 2024, after a collaboration program for paid internship and employment for IT students at Global Design IT Vietnam. Since 2018, the path of 20 students accepted each year has been in place.
