Event Description:
The Study in Canada promotion event is organized by Keibunsha a publisher of study-abroad magazines and an organizer of study abroad events in Japan, with the assistance of the Embassy of Canada to Japan. This event consists of three major parts:
- Canadian institution information published on the campaign website (in Japanese only) for a year from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2024
- A networking luncheon (B2B) hosted jointly by the Embassy of Canada to Japan and Keibunsha, at the Embassy on November 2, 2023
- One day in-person Study in Canada Fair (B2C) in Tokyo on November 3, 2023 (five hours) – 11:00 - 16:00
In Japan, there are only a few recruitment fairs for the Canadian institutions to join at this moment. This event is the only Canada-focused recruitment fair of this size in Japan this fall.
Canadian institutions will have the opportunity to provide detailed information to interested students and parents in Japan. Each Canadian representative can be accompanied by an interpreter, arranged by the organizer, to facilitate communication amongst the institutions and Japanese participants. Participants will learn general information on studying abroad in Canada from various seminars presented by the Embassy representatives, including a representative(s) from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
The campaign website (Japanese only, currently with the Spring Fair information) for this event will be open (duration to be confirmed) to allow continued access for information of the Canadian institutions.
