Turning knowledge into the power to move the future.
This one year will absorb you like nothing before.
And a year on, your management will already have changed.
Apply — from here, your future starts to move.
Picture yourself, one year from now.
The business challenge you face now becomes each month's assignment. You analyse it with academic frameworks and draw the path to a breakthrough. The results feed straight into each month's decisions, from your very time in the programme. Between learning and management, there is no time lag. And so, reality begins to move.
Twelve hours in class; eighty-eight in self-study. This is no light road. But something curious happens. Because you take on your own current challenges with today's frameworks, studying becomes something you cannot get enough of. However demanding work gets, you find yourself making time to learn. And before you know it, the hours you spend with this programme are the hours you feel most yourself — that is the kind of year this is.
Then, a year on: in your hands remain eight practical management documents, each the record of a real fight with your own company's challenges. But what you truly hold is not the documents. It is the power that keeps evolving through self-study and practice, long after completion — the power of implementation in management itself. One year is not an end but a starting point. From here, the reach of your challenge widens.
That quickening is the sign to step forward. Now — take the first step onto your future stage.
The individual consultation — a place to draw your future, together.
The future you aim for; the management challenges you face now; the reality you want to change in this one year — tell us. This is no one-way briefing. Starting from your future, it is a place where, through dialogue, we make concrete what kind of year this programme can draw with you.

What we seek is the will to change reality.
The MBA Executive Award is for practitioner-leaders who have built a record on the front line of management, and who aim for further growth. The eligibility guideline is as follows.
A degree from a four-year university or above, and at least three years of professional experience.
What we are truly looking at, however, is not the lines of your educational or professional history. It is the will — "what do I want to change in my business?" — and the practical grip that backs it. Your background is assessed comprehensively at the individual consultation.
From entry to admission: four steps.
The process is transparent and clear.
STEP 1: Individual consultation
A step of dialogue: confirming the programme's details, fees and curriculum, your will to learn, and the eligibility requirements. Online or in person (Shibuya).
STEP 2: Formal entry
You submit the required documents by the specified method, and formally enter the process. At formal entry, the application fee of ¥33,000 (tax included) is payable.
Documents to be submitted:
- Essay in English (statement of motivation), about two A4 pages
- A copy of your passport (proof of age and identity)
- Certificate of graduation from your most recent institution (one copy, in English)
- Academic transcript from your most recent institution (one copy, in English)
- CV in English
- Two letters of recommendation in English (referee's contact details and signature required)
- Application Form (with photograph)
- Signed Unconditional Self Declaration
STEP 3: Admissions review and notification
Your application is submitted to the UITM academic committee, and a review is carried out by Shibuya Web3 University Co., Ltd. Successful applicants receive a letter of admission (offer letter).
STEP 4: Admission procedures and start
After receiving your letter of admission, you pay the fees and complete the admission orientation — and the programme begins.
Rolling admission, every month. The eight modules circulate continuously in a fixed order, month after month, without a break. Whichever month you enter, completing one full cycle of the eight completes the programme. The month after you decide to learn, that resolve can already be learning.

FAQ
Here are some frequently asked questions.
[About the program]
Q1. What is the SCX Professional Program?
A. It is a Professional Program equivalent to an MBA: UITM (the University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszów, Poland) provides quality assurance and the curriculum, and Shibuya Web3 University Co., Ltd. operates the programme in Japan.
UITM is a university aligned with the Bologna Process, and the programme stands on the foundation of its quality assurance. To all who complete the programme, an official Executive Award (completion certificate) is conferred under the name of the President of UITM.
Q2. Why the expression "equivalent to an MBA"?
A. UITM provides education in two forms: the Academic Program (the academic research route, centred on the training of researchers) and the Professional Program (the professional education route, for practitioner-leaders). This programme is the latter.
"Equivalent to" is the internationally precise expression indicating that the content stands at a level equivalent to an MBA. In the EQF (European Qualifications Framework), the programme is positioned at Level 7 (the second cycle).
[About learning]
Q1. How much English do I need?
A. Classes are taught in Japanese, so a high level of English is not required to take part. It is precisely because the language is Japanese that discussion can go deep.
The assignments, however, are completed in English. We support this English writing — including the use of generative AI — so that those who lack confidence in English can take it on.
Q2. Can I combine the programme with my work?
A. Yes. Classes are held, as a rule, on Saturdays, in a hybrid format of online (Zoom) and in person (Shibuya), designed so that your learning does not intrude on weekday work.
With rolling admission — enrolment every month — you can begin at your own timing.
Q3. Whom is the programme for?
A. What we truly seek are people who refuse to give up on reality, and who are acting to change it.
The essence of our selection criteria is not the number of lines in your educational or professional history. It is the will — "what do I want to change in my business?" — and the practical record that backs it. Not consumers of knowledge, but people who create transformation themselves and set reality in motion. That is the criterion that matters most.
On that basis, the eligibility guideline is as follows.
- A degree from a four-year university or above, and at least three years of professional experience (in particular, experience of organisational change or management).
(Educational and professional history are minimum guidelines. At the individual consultation, we listen to your will and your record, comprehensively.)
[About the completion certificate]
Q1. Who issues the completion certificate (Award)?
A. It is issued under the name of the President of UITM in Poland, and carries the seal of the university and the President's signature.
It is conferred as an official Executive Award (completion certificate) under the name of the President of UITM, recognising that what you have completed stands at a level equivalent to an MBA.
(For the certificate's wording in detail, see "Your one year takes shape, to a global standard" on this page, and the Trust page.)
Q2. Where is the Graduation Ceremony held?
A. Your completion certificate is delivered by post.
In addition, you may, if you wish, take part in the Graduation Ceremony held at UITM in Rzeszów, Poland.
(Attendance involves separate costs, such as travel and participation fees.)
