Services
A business cooperative operated with joint purchasing at its core.
Once our license is granted, we will also support the Technical Intern Training, Specified Skilled Worker, and Training and Employment programs.
BEGIN Cooperative completed registration as a business cooperative on April 24, 2026, and currently operates joint purchasing as its primary business. For support concerning the Technical Intern Training and Training and Employment programs, we are preparing an application for a Supervising Organization license with OTIT; approval is expected to take approximately 6 months to 1 year.
