Nissha Printing Co., Ltd. and Nissha Group company employees, mainly from production bases within Japan, conduct study programs at local child care centers and elementary schools. In the second half of fiscal year 2013, study sessions were held in Kyoto City, where Nissha is headquartered, as well as in Koka City in Shiga Prefecture, Tsu City in Mie Prefecture, and Kaga City in Ishikawa Prefecture.

The study programs are designed to give participants an enjoyable learning experience through quizzes and group sessions on topics such as the environment ("What can we do to protect the environment") and printing technologies including printing on paper and touch-screen manufacturing (participants are introduced to printing techniques and manufacturing methods at Nissha).
