The Advanced Career Course is a course that aims to prepare students for a higher level of employment or career, such as working for a reputable private company, working as a civil servant at a prefectural or city office, or even going on to graduate Osaka Sangyo University Graduate School, by challenging themselves to take proficiency exams and obtain qualifications, including the ERE (Examination for Economics and Technology) (note) and TOEIC.

(Note) The ERE (Economics Examination) is a test in which students from Faculty of Economics departments across the country compete on their understanding of economic theory, and can be likened to the economics version of TOEIC. As stated on the organizer's website, the test verifies the results of learning economics, and is therefore thought to be useful for job hunting and Osaka Sangyo University Graduate School admissions.
