The Japan AT Forum started in 2010 as the National KOSEN Welfare Information Education Forum, which was held mainly by technical college teachers as a forum for research exchanges related to welfare and information education. It was renamed "Japan AT Forum" by incorporating a training workshop, and is held once a year. This forum is a place for research and technology exchange where engineers, students, and organizations involved in AT (Assistive Technology) gather to research and develop assistive technology and train engineers. The 9th conference will be held at the National Institute of Technology, Niihama College.
