at Shibuya Forum 8 in Tokyo
The Spring General Meeting was attended by 33 member companies represented by 24 individuals (9 organizations represented via proxy). One new organization as well as one new support organization were approved and admitted into JAOS. Considering that this was JAOS’ first meeting since becoming an NPO, many issues were raised during the discussion, which saw many ideas actively exchanged. Resolutions included the setting up of a ‘consumer consultation booth’, conducting initial preparation for a ‘Study Abroad Program Advisor’ licensing system (training and testing),’ participation in JAFSA, and the use of a new JAOS logotype.
