2012 WCJ Session 1 experience

In Omura, our participants will have a chance to experience “Japanese elementary school and Jr. high school life” by visiting their schools and participating in their school activities. They will also have a day in the city of Nagasaki to visit the peace museum, listen to the A-bomb survivor speech, and visit the Dutch/Chinese districts.

In Omuta, our participants will have “in depth” and unique interactions with two of their elementary schools and high school and discussions regarding the education systems in Japan and various countries.

Regarding March 11, 2011 Japanese Earthquake

March 12, 2011

Dear Friends of World Campus International,

The shocking earthquake hitting the north-east part of Japan has caused massive destruction to the region. Currently, the Japanese national and local governments are working to assess the degree of damage.

Though there are areas of Japan that have been severely affected, all of our partner communities seem to have avoided tragedy. Currently, we do plan to facilitate the World Campus – Japan program from June 23 thru August 30.

Because the damages are reported in the northern region of Japan, and our community partners are located in central to western Japan, we are confident that our summer program will not be affected by the earthquake.

We have already contacted several community partners who are hosting our summer program and confirmed that they are OK and not severely or at all affected by these tragic events. We will continue to reach out to the rest of our community partners and communicate to you via this website any updated information.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hiro Nishimura
Chairman and CEO
World Campus International, Inc.
