Good morning.
Yesterday was July 5, 2025. Online, rumors were swirling about a prophecy predicting a major disaster. I think I was quite late to hear about it. However, the number of earthquakes recorded in the Tokara Islands has now exceeded 1,000, and a magnitude 6.0 earthquake has been observed!!! While this might differ from the whispered prophecy, I can’t help but think… maybe it’s already “coming true.” Well, I’m also relieved that a major catastrophe didn’t occur.
Amidst this lingering sense of unease, ETC OKINAWA celebrated its second anniversary on July 4, 2025. We are truly grateful that during this past year (July 4, 2024 to July 3, 2025), we were able to provide certificate services to over 140 participants through 23 training sessions (asbestos and lead). We sincerely thank everyone who utilized our services. Thank you so much.
Our first year was all about getting started! Just launching the business and getting it off the ground was all we could manage. In contrast, our second year allowed us to strengthen our internal operations, establishing a core management system (database) for participant records and assigning backup instructors. We also tackled exciting projects born from playful ideas, like creating the “Negative Pressure Dust Collector Unit Calculation Tool” page. Looking back, the second year brought many unexpected challenges we never imagined in the first year, making it a truly fruitful period.
In the third year, we will similarly strive to gradually realize our “things we want to try” while working to provide even better services than last year. We sincerely appreciate your continued support for ETC OKINAWA.
