Teacher Employment Issues

Date: Sunday, December 14th, 2014 Time: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Richard Miller (Kobe Gakuin University), Michael Parrish (Kwansei Gakuin University)

Description:
This presentation will begin with an overview of the job market for language professionals in Japan, and the current trends for the job market. Results from surveys and questionnaires that the presenter has obtained through his role as the Job Information Centre (JIC) editor will be given. A brief overview of what an academic CV is will be given, then the presentation will then go into areas that educators may want to focus on to improve their CV. This includes what the presenter refers to as "the balanced scorecard" and how audience participants can look for weaknesses in their own career marketability. At the presentation, copies of past published articles will be distributed as well as other worksheets.
