Many aspects distinguish the JET Programme from other English teaching and exchange opportunities. First, on the most fundamental level, the JET Programme is sponsored by three Japanese Ministries (MIC, MOFA, MEXT), and places JET participants within local governments around Japan. As a government sponsored programme, JET is not a language school business that hopes to profit off of English education. The goal of JET is to promote internationalisation in Japanfs local communities by helping to improve foreign language education and developing international exchange at the community level.
