The Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program
The JET Program hires college graduates to work from one to five years as Assistant Language Teachers (ALTs) or, sometimes, Sports Exchange Advisors (SEAs), in public schools in Japan, or as Coordinators for International Relations (CIRs) in a variety of settings. For information about the JET Program and on how to apply, please visit the JET Program USA official website.
The JET Program Alumni Community
The foundation of JETAA USA is its JETAA chapters. These JETAA Chapters provide information and services to JET alumni. They also serve as a place for JET alumni to contribute to U.S.-Japan relations in their local communities in addition to allowing JET alumni to come together to share friendship and camaraderie among those with similar interests and experiences.
The best way to become involved as a JET alum is to contact your nearest Chapter. JETAA USA currently has 19 Chapters across the United States, and many of these have local Sub-Chapters.
