Appeal for Prefectural Advisor
Information
With the way that JET works and its revolving door style of employment, we often have to reach out and update the contact information for PAs (Prefectural Advisors), as well as other resources specific to each prefecture.
If you are a PA*, you can help us make this process easier by submitting the information to our form here.
​
*If you are not a PA, but want to submit your PA's information, please check with your PA and ask for permission before submitting.
