From March 22, 2022 to Thursday, March 24, APU will hold the BEGIN Jr. Program, an online program aimed at Japan’s high school students. We will be recruiting students for this program until February 11.
The BEGIN (Basic Education Growing Infinity Nexus) Jr. Program, based on the concept of "infinite mutual growth through basic learning at APU," aims to teach participants the necessary skills and attitudes for global citizens through the experience of becoming a peer leader at APU. Through 7 missions, participating high school students will learn to accept diverse values and achieve their set goals through problem-based discussions and presentations. Supervising professors and a diverse group of student Teaching Assistants (TA’s) will facilitate and support participants throughout the entire program,
