"Inshokujuku" is launching a specialized consultation service for food and beverage companies struggling with in-house training of craftsman skills, such as sushi making, and with labor shortages. This service will provide cost simulations utilizing the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "Human Resources Development Support Subsidy" and propose optimal training schedules. By creating an accessible learning environment that leverages government support systems, we aim to address the challenges of traditional training systems that often depend on individual experience, thereby reducing corporate education costs and on-site burdens, and supporting the systematization of highly reproducible human resource development.
Industry Challenges: Severe Labor Shortages and "Personalized Education"
Currently, the explosive growth in inbound tourism has led to a surge in demand for Japanese cuisine and sushi in the domestic food service industry. Coupled with the global boom in Japanese food, the value of "craftsman skills" is being re-evaluated both domestically and internationally. However, the domestic food service sector is facing an extremely severe labor shortage.
The root cause of this problem lies in the "personalization of education" unique to restaurant operations. In many companies, the training of chefs relies heavily on the experience and intuition of individual store managers or senior staff, leading to issues such as "enormous time required to become proficient" and "reduction in on-site sales staff due to dedication to training."
To overcome these challenges, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare is actively promoting the "Human Resources Development Support Subsidy" to boost labor productivity and support reskilling for the inexperienced. Our塾's short-term, intensive, and systematic curriculum qualifies as training eligible for this subsidy (※). Therefore, we have established this consultation service to allow companies to specifically discuss "how to integrate the curriculum into their own hiring and training schedules" and simultaneously "smoothly grasp the net cost after subsidy application."
"Three Mechanisms" Making Inshokujuku the Choice for Corporate Training:
① "Standardization of Education" for Highly Reproducible Training
Instead of relying on individual intuition, the curriculum is standardized for systematic acquisition, allowing even inexperienced individuals to learn step-by-step. Covering everything from basic techniques to practical counter service and store management skills, our curriculum enables trainees to reach a level deployable on-site within a short period of three months.
② "Separated Education Model" That Doesn't Disrupt On-site Operations
Unlike traditional methods where training occurs during operational downtime, Inshokujuku provides intensive basic skill training during the dedicated training period. This completely eliminates the training burden on store managers and veteran chefs, allowing the on-site team to focus on store operations and maximizing sales.
③ "Optimization of Education Costs" Through Subsidy Utilization (Up to Approx. 67% Cost Reduction)
By utilizing the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's "Human Resources Development Support Subsidy" to enroll in our courses, companies can receive two types of subsidies: "expense subsidies" for training costs (tuition + tools) and "wage subsidies" incurred during the training period.
[Specific Calculation Example: Sushi Chef Course (for 1 person)]
- Original Total Cost (Tuition + Tools): ¥1,370,000
- Total Subsidies from Government: ¥920,000 (Breakdown: Expense Subsidy ¥500,000 + Wage Subsidy ¥420,000)
⇒ Net Cost for Company: ¥450,000 (Approx. 67% Cost Reduction)
※This calculation is an example for businesses covered by employment insurance, meeting small and medium-sized enterprise requirements, and fulfilling specific conditions (training 5 days/week, 7 hours/day, for 3 months) with proper enrollment and application. As conditions may vary, detailed simulations will be conducted by the newly established specialized consultation service.
