We visited the universities in North America, Asia and Europe, made research on their Faculty Development, Teaching Assistant Training and Preparing Future Faculty system, and practiced International Symposium on Professional Development (July 2009) and International PFF Workshops (March & July 2010, July-August 2011). As a result we found that the American type of TA training system and PFF programs can be applied to Japanese graduate education, and the UC Berkeley's PFF workshop in English meet the demands and expectations of Japanese and foreign graduate students in Japan, and this program can show them the new road to become a good faculty in the future.
