Japanese companies have been conducting English education to their employees since just after World War II. Nowadays, with the increasing globalization of company activities, English is becoming increasingly essential for businesspersons, and companies are making more efforts to improve the English communication skills of their employees. In-company English education has contributed to business persons' English learning, achieving positive results.
