About Hokkaido's "Foreign Talent Recruitment and Retention Seminar & Roundtable"

As part of the "Foreign Talent Promotion Project" in Hokkaido, we will be holding a "Foreign Talent Recruitment and Retention Seminar & Roundtable".
Recently, the House of Councilors passed and enacted amendments to the Technical Intern Training Act and other laws, the main pillar of which is the creation of a training and employment system for foreigners. This seminar is being held in light of the decision to change the system regarding the employment of foreign human resources, and will feature foreign worker experts from the Sapporo Immigration Bureau, JETRO Hokkaido, and other organizations as lecturers.
