The Embassy of Japan in Pakistan has unveiled an exciting opportunity for Pakistani educators, introducing the MEXT Teachers Training Scholarship 2024.
Aimed at teachers with a minimum of 5 years’ experience in public or private primary or secondary schools, this scholarship presents a unique chance for professional growth and development.
Teachers aged 35 years or below will qualify to apply for this scholarship, as highlighted in the embassy's press release. The initiative aims to provide an enriching opportunity for eligible teachers to expand their horizons and delve into Japan's educational landscape.
Under the umbrella of Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology (MEXT), this scholarship program is an annual offering.
