China and Asian Railway Trainee Programmes
EJRCF has programmes to invite railway officers from China and other Asian countries to Japan to study railway engineering and management. Trainees are also offered a broader insight into Japan through social events and trips with JR East employees, their families and local residents.
 
 
International Training
In March 2004, EJRCF started offering training courses and lectures to middle-level managers invited from neighbouring countries using the up-to-date facilities of the JR East General Education Center. The courses run for several weeks and offer expert knowledge in fields, such as rolling stock, infrastructure, signalling, etc.
 
 
To serve as an international forum on railway and transport issues, EJRCF publishes JRTR, an English quarterly journal providing transport information and commentary worldwide.
