Originality Born from the Attitude of \"Learning from Children\"<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

The originality we cherish in product development comes from \"learning from children.\"<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This source is found in the Kumon Center, where we are continuously learning from children.
There are more than 15,000 Kumon centers in Japan alone, where more than 1.3 million children study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our unique strength lies in having this kind of ground-level feedback within our corporate group, enabling us to create products based on real-world experiences and validate their effectiveness in the Kumon centers.
Products like \"workbooks\" and \"cards\" were also born from teaching at Kumon centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CEO himself actively researches new trends and topics in order to bring them to our readers under our own unique method of learning.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

New Challenges for a Brighter Future<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

In today's society, the ability to solve problems independently is vital.
And the self-confidence developed by the joy of learning oneself is priceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here at Kumon Publishing, we are taking new challenges by helping children learn subjects like programming and STEAM that will clear a path for their own future and by providing lifelong learning that will let adults regain their childlike love of learning.
We are convinced that Kumon's knowledge and skills can be applied in developing products that will give children the feeling of successfully completing a challenge as they advance through self-learning and self-study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going forward, Kumon Publishing will continue to propose new values<\/strong><\/span> through products and services to all those who wish to learn and grow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kumon Publishing Co., Ltd. was established in 1980 as a publishing division of Kumon Institute of Education Co., Ltd., and became independent in 1988.As a member of the KUMON Group, we have been committed to developing and selling educational products and services that foster learning and growth for all, with a focus on children.In 2004, we established Kumon Publishing North America, Inc.
