Nikka Home Co., Ltd., a major residential renovation provider headquartered in Nagoya, Aichi, has been operating its unique career education support program 'Ju no Kyoshitsu' (Classroom of Living) since fiscal 2024. The program provides children with opportunities to learn about architecture, living environments, and professional work while thinking about their future.
On June 24, 2026, a visiting class will be held at an elementary school in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture. Nikka Home continues to work with local communities to engage in next-generation development and educational support activities.
As the construction industry faces a labor shortage, schools are also reporting a lack of teachers with specialized expertise. Leveraging its extensive renovation experience, Nikka Home offers students a chance to learn about architecture and the environment through their familiar surroundings. The classes cover not only the mechanisms of home building but also the societal significance of professional work.
A key feature of Nikka Home's program is its adaptability. For younger elementary students, the company offers workshop formats focused on crafting and experiences. For older students and junior high schoolers, it provides lecture formats focused on living environments and careers. Active renovation staff serve as instructors, sharing real-world work insights that cannot be found in textbooks.
Since 2024, the program has reached schools and after-school facilities across Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba. Future sessions are already scheduled through early 2027 in cities like Shinjuku, Kawasaki, and Tama. The program is also listed on 'Demae School,' a matching platform for educational institutions and corporations, making it available for diverse educational purposes including integrated studies and career guidance.
