We invited a lecturer to discuss the topic of the increase in Japanese companies seeking foreign exchange students, and what kinds of students they are looking for. While going over the figures on the current state of the global economy, we engaged in a practical discussion of the role of Japanese businesses, and the role of foreign exchange students, within the changing global economy. We received practical advice, with a focus on business etiquette. In the future, we at MEROS will strive to tailor our Japanese language school to meet the needs of exchange students.
