According to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, there may be a shortage of up to 790,000 IT personnel by 2030 (*1). LINE Yahoo and Kiramex will open the LINE Yahoo Tech Academy (*2) in November 2022 in order to give back to society the know-how they have cultivated over the years and solve the social issue of a shortage of IT human resources. However, we are developing a “Web Application Development Course” where you can learn programming skills. In order to provide better services, we analyzed the needs of the participants and found that there were those who assumed a career change, such as “I want to change jobs within a year no matter what,” “I want to change jobs but am worried because I have no experience,” and “I want to change jobs but am worried because I have no experience.” “I want to acquire IT skills for communication and general education” or “I’m not thinking of changing jobs right away, but I’m interested in a job as an engineer and would like to study first to see if I have aptitude.” The results showed that the objectives of the course were
diversifying. In response to this background, “LINE Yahoo! Tech Academy” offers the “Engineer Career Change Guarantee Course” so that those who are thinking of changing jobs can take the course with a guarantee (*3) that is not intended for the purpose of changing jobs. We have launched two new courses, the “First Web Application Development Course,” where you can learn IT skills for use in your current job or as part of your education at a lower cost. Both courses are jointly planned by LINE Yahoo and Kiramex, and have a curriculum that allows even those with no experience to acquire practical IT skills. Based on online learning, you can study at your own pace without being restricted by time or place, and you can also consult with exclusive mentors (current engineers) contracted with Chiramex, so you can study with confidence. can continue. Additionally, you can watch videos of lectures by current employees working at LINE Yahoo, and learn about operating know-how for the services provided by LINE Yahoo and the practical work of engineers, allowing you to imagine more concretely how they can be used in the field. . In addition, after taking the “First Web Application Development Course,” you can transfer to the “Engineer Career Change Guaranteed Course,” so you can use it to say things like, “I don’t know if I’ll change jobs, but I’ll take the First Web Application Development Course first.” is also possible. LINE Yahoo and Kiramex will continue to work to solve the problem of Japan’s lack of IT human resources through the LINE Yahoo Tech Academy.
