The Graduate School for Professionals in Education was established in 2008, and the new School Administrators Prepare Course and Education Practice Development were introduced in 2017. Since its establishment, the graduate school has been cooperating with the Gifu City Education Board in educational and research activities in professional degree programs.

The graduate school and the education board signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Partnership to Enhance Teaching Staff Qualification on December 22, 2017 with an aim to return the achievements made between the two institutions back to schools and local communities. We hope that the signing of MoU will give a momentum to bring a lot of success to the region-based professional degree programs by way of training school managerial personnel and providing assistance for working teachers who are studying in the program.
