Japanese corporate career experience events for children

Overview

Japanese companies and organizations are hosting various career-themed experiential events for children and their families.

In August 2026, several corporations held workplace observation days. JFE Systems hosted office tours and broadcasting experiences, while Seed Co., Ltd. allowed children to engage in tasks such as sending emails and interviewing staff. APAMAN Co., Ltd. also conducted workshops involving customer service simulations and the creation of business cards.

By September 2026, the focus expanded to specific industries, such as transportation and logistics. Hokusō Railway announced a program for elementary students to operate a train and undergo conductor training. Additionally, an event in Akita City provided families with delivery simulations to demonstrate the work of truck drivers.
