Gunma AJET

GAJET is your local Gunma JET community and support group. We are here to help make your time in Gunma the best it can be by bringing you information, resources, and connecting you to the community!

GAJET is the local chapter of AJET, the Association of the Japan Exchange and Teaching Program run by elected JETs (just like you!). We are an independent, self-supporting volunteer organization that promotes and supports exchange and teaching in Japan in cooperation with the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Programme.

We also run the ultra-useful Gunma ALTs Facebook Page, which is perhaps the best way to stay up-to-date on local happenings, events, and news.

Don’t be a stranger, unless you are a wild Gunma bear or monkey- in which case, please do stay away.
