Panel Discussion on Education and Overseas Study in the U.K

May 29, 2007

at British Council in Tokyo

Headed by Bill Rummel, Supervisor of Lifelong Learning, Continuing Education and Higher Education activities at the British Embassy, this seminar was sponsored by the British Council and featured 16 visiting guests who work within the British education industry. A panel discussion was held that included 3 Britons and 2 two Japanese representatives, Mr. Takuho Hayashi, President of JAOS, and Professor Ono of Waseda University. Though it was limited to just 90 minutes, the active discussion was highly beneficial to those in attendance. This invitation-only event was attended by 70 participants, 10 of which represented JAOS member organizations.
