■Message from Chairman Yasushi Kokondo
It is said that the development of generative AI will significantly change the way white-collar workers work. I think there are many people who feel uneasy about this, even though they know it is theoretically true. What we should value is not correct logic, but the anxious feelings of those who stand in front of a new era. Career consultants are required to have the ability to propose new ways of working for a new era while empathizing with the feelings of these people. We believe that by acquiring knowledge of reskilling and generative AI, career consultants can help many people.

[About Japan Reskilling Career Consultant Association (JRCA)] JRCA is a general incorporated association that promotes the production of career consultants who are suited to reskilling in the era of generative AI. Our activities center around three areas: “spreading reskilling,” “training career consultants,” and “creating opportunities for career consultants.” By supporting career consultants’ own reskilling and creating opportunities for them to succeed, we aim to build a brighter future for each career consultant.
