On September 30th, MPKEN organized an online seminar with the theme "Seeking Employment in Japan" for Vietnamese mothers living in Japan on family visas (dependent visas).
The seminar featured two guest speakers:
Mr. Tran The Anh, with many years experience in assisting technical interns and Vietnamese mothers in learning Japanese from JLPT N5 to N2.
Mr. Nguyen Duc Thanh, founder of a project supporting many international students and Vietnamese mothers in passing the Boki 3kyu and 2kyu examinations.
The seminar attracted more than 100 registrations. Nearly 40 participants from various regions of Japan such as Tokyo, Saitama, Osaka, and Fukuoka joined the infosession.
The seminar was divided into three main parts:
The first part highlighted insights from Ms. Phuong Mai, the event's MC, who has lived in Japan for over 15 years and is a mother of two children. Ms. Mai shared the challenges that Vietnamese mothers often face when seeking employment in Japan and offered solutions. These challenges included finding childcare facilities, self-study of the Japanese language, exploring job opportunities, and maintaining a balance between work and family life.
In the following part of the program, Mr. Tran The Anh shared tips with the participants on how to learn Japanese language based on his own self-study experience and the practical experiences of many students over the past five years. He emphasized the importance of overcoming personal procrastination and utilizing small pockets of free time during the day (referred to as "Sukima Jikan" in Japanese) for studying, rather than waiting until the evening or when one has free time.
The third part of the program featured insights from Mr. Nguyen Duc Thanh regarding the Boki certification and its advantages when seeking office jobs in Japan. Mr. Thanh suggested career development paths, starting with part-time jobs in tax accounting offices upon obtaining the Boki 3kyu certification and gradually learning and accumulating experience to become full-time employees in these offices.
At the end of the program, the MC and the two guest speakers had approximately 30 minutes to interact and address questions and concerns from the participants about seeking employment in Japan, self-studying Japanese, and taking the Boki certification exams.
