Instructor Visa

According to the ISA, https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/applications/status/instructor.html?hl=en, to gain an instructor visa it says if I am offered a category 1 job I do not need proof of my degree? I am just confused because it seems like the higher level schools would require more proof not less for a visa.

I am arriving in Japan mid December to explore the option to take a teaching position. I am TEFL certified and have 8 years experience as a teacher and 15 years experience as a tutor but have no formal degree. I am working to finish a Bachelor's in Business Management by march but I am wondering if that is super necessary for the process.

  1. I am confused the wording as well, but what they seem to focus on more is the experience.
