This research examines the destination choice patterns of CPE participants and the reasons they choose Japanese or U.S. universities. Interviews with CPE participants suggested that U.S. schools attracted Japanese government officials by offering a wider range of courses emphasizing the integration of theory and practice. Boshier's motivational orientation model was applied to better understand CPE motivations and reasons. Notably, no participant identified "social welfare" as an important motivator, but "employment benefit" and "upgrading personal market value" factors emerged. - Reproduced.  aCivil service - Japan  aCivil service  aKim, Mikyong Minsun  aInternational Journal of Public Administration  aN  a103433  c103429d103429  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 36, Issue no: 8pAR103893r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
