TAIP supports early childhood educators through training, networking, and publicity.
As a member-funded association in Tokyo since 2005, we have sponsored a wide range of workshops for teachers.
In addition to schools, we welcome businesses and individual members in our community and have grown to include schools outside of Tokyo through our "Satellite Membership" program.
