Description
The government, companies and universities in Japan have been emphasizing the importance to educate young people to be competent in globalized business world. Assuming gap year as one of tactics to train the young Japanese, increasing attention has been paid to gap year in Japan, and as a result, the factual knowledge about gap year has been gradually accumulated. Now we know that gap year is a traditional custom in the UK, the number of British participants of gap year, who are involved in it, and the varieties how it is conducted. However, the stakeholders’ recognition on gap year in the UK has not been investigated in detail. It would be important for Japanese stakeholders to know how stakeholders in the UK think on gap year in order to attract and encourage the young Japanese to participate such a mental energy consuming activity. A piece of qualitative research is conducted on and it is found that the gap on assumptions on purpose of gap year between those who believe that gap year is an effective way to enrich individual’s CV and those who assume that it is one of opportunities to develop the world citizenship. These assumptions are not clearly recognized by the participants. It is important to clarify the purpose of the gap year when universities conduct gap year as part of their programs.
