Middlebury Institute of International Studies (MIIS) has updated their Universities Partnership with USJETAA, offering more financial assistance and online learning options for your next chapter.

This event will focus on providing you insight into the local US-Japan job market and landscape across Kentucky and Michigan.

We will discuss techniques to translate soft skills learned on JET into your next career, how to utilize career coaches and recruiters and what networking actually is and how to do it well.

We’re proud to launch USJETAA's first annual Giving Campaign for 2024! Your support is essential for empowering JETs—past, present, and those yet to come. Watch our campaign video to see how, for nearly a decade, USJETAA has been dedicated to enhancing US-Japan relations and connecting JET alumni through professional development, cultural events, and educational programming.
