The Academic Intensive Japanese Program (AIJP)
prepares students for professional careers
requiring advanced Japanese, and for successful
entry into Japanese language undergraduate and
graduate degree programs. It is about 20% more
intense than most accredited programs offered in
Japan. Grammar is a major focus.
School Locations:
 Tokyo, Japan's capital, is the country's
largest city and has a population of over 12
million, about 10 percent of Japan's total
population. It is located on the Pacific on the
eastern coast of Honshu, Japan's largest and
most historically important island. For anyone interested in
architecture and design, Tokyo is a city of
dreams. Effortlessly blending the old style and
the new, where cutting edge technology glitters
beside ancient temples, flashing neon lights
shine upon kimono-clad women in traditional
Japanese dress, where skyscrapers tower above
beautiful Shinto shrines, Tokyo is quite
literally a city that defies definition. Tokyo
and the surrounding areas offer
endless opportunities in tourism, dining, entertainment and shopping.
Established in 1984 our Japanese school in Tokyo
is situated in Shinjuku, one of the 23 wards of
the metropolis of Tokyo. Shinjuku commonly
refers to the large entertainment area, and
business and shopping areas around Shinjuku
Station, Japan's busiest railway station.
Our school is a member of the Association For
The Promotion of Japanese Language Education (Nihongo
Kyoiku Shinko Kyokai) and a member of The Forum
for Business Japanese sponsored by JETRO which
is an extra-departmental body of MITI. The
school is also authorized by the immigration
Office as a Visa proxy.
Okazaki, is an historic city located in
central area in main island of Japan, 300 km
west of Tokyo and 150 km east of Kyoto,
centrally located between Tokyo and Osaka. Part
of an extensive metropolitan area comprising
more than 7 million people, Okazaki City is now
a satellite city of Nagoya and forms part of
Japan's affluent manufacturing belt comprising
of Toyota, Okazaki, Gamagori and Toyohashi
cities. It is a boom town, one of the fastest
growing cities in Japan.
It is situated where the Oto and Yahagi rivers
meet. The eastern and northern borders of
Okazaki city are ringed with hills, which border
on the Akaishi Mountains, known as the South
Japan Alps. There are plains on the western and
southern borders of the city. The city is
blessed with scenic beauty throughout the year,
from the cherry blossom and lush greenery in the
spring to the splendid foliage in the fall. It
is also a short distance with train or car from
numerous hot springs and Pacific Ocean beaches.
There is good access to Okazaki from the new
Chubu International Airport.
Okazaki City is safer, cheaper and quieter than
cities like Tokyo or Osaka, and more suited to
learning Japanese while gaining a real sense and
taste of the traditional Japan. The local area
around our Japanese school in Okazaki, still has
a small town feel because the city is spread
out, with low housing density, tree lined
streets, numerous parks and large shopping
malls. The school in Okazaki is a non-profit, specialist center for Japanese studies.
Established in 1919, the center teaches Japanese, Japanese linguistics, and modern Japanese culture to international students.
Offering top quality Japanese language training
in Japan, our APJLE accredited school offers 3
awards for students who complete ACJS programs.
These are the Course Certificate, the Graduate
Certificate and the Graduate Diploma. The course
certificate is issued to all students completing
an ACJS program, the Graduate Diploma is the
highest level award.
Osaka is one of Japan's most exciting
cities. It offers so much for visitors to enjoy:
a fascinating history, enchanting waterways,
vibrant commerce, world-class shopping, fabulous
food, a rich cultural heritage and lively
festivals. It's always a buzz of activity and
fun, with lots to see and do.
Our Japanese School in Osaka is part of a unique
IT college where the education is based on
Buddhism. Studying among 250 Japanese students
of IT school increases your confidence in
communication in Japanese, as well as
understanding Japanese culture.
Students are trained for the upraising of
several skills such as business-manners,
self-disciplines, the self-management ability
and etc, all of which contribute to leading
actual life in Japan securing employment, to say
nothing of proficiency in practical Japanese. We
believe that all of these skills help students
to play an active part in the Japanese society.
We are also supporting students seeking a job
with job placement assistance in IT or IT
related firms. We have also opened an IT
Specialist Course for students with a major in
that field.
Fukuoka is located in the south-west of
Japan in the Kyushu region, and offers a
moderate climate, beautiful scenery and an
all-round great location. In 1997, 1999 and
again in 2000, Fukuoka was ranked the best city
in Asia by Asia week magazine. In 2000, Fukuoka
was ranked the best city in Asia by Asia week
magazine.
Fukuoka's renowned cuisine (the city has more
restaurants per person than anywhere else in
Japan) and warm-hearted people will make your
stay here a pleasure. Foreigners are still not
too common a sight in Fukuoka, so you will be
sure to enjoy plenty of attention, and people
are always happy to help you. Fukuoka is
bursting with culture: its many art galleries,
museums, and theaters will give you your fill of
the Japanese arts, while the nightlife is the
best on the island.
Fukuoka International Airport is one of the most
conveniently located airports of Japan, very
close to Fukuoka city. The airport is serviced
by numerous flights from key Asian cities as
well as Honolulu, and has good flight
connections with all major Japanese cities,
especially with Osaka, Tokyo (Haneda Airport)
and Nagoya.
Our Japanese school in Fukuoka is located in the
city centre in Tenjin. We offer Japanese
language courses in a range of areas. We can
arrange a homestay family for the student, and
various interesting activities for the duration
of your stay.
Sapporo is the fifth largest city in
Japan, with a population of more than 1.8
million people. The Japanese language spoken
here is much closer to standard Japanese than
are dialects elsewhere.
Sapporo is located in Hokkaido, the northernmost
island of the Japanese group of islands, about 1
and half hour north of Tokyo by airplane.
Sapporo is a young and enterprising city founded
only less than 130 years ago when Meiji
government set about developing Hokkaido into a
new agricultural and strategic region. Sapporo's
modern buildings and busy streets are
interspersed with lush parks and green hills,
with the Toyohira river flowing through it. An
abundance of natural beauty surrounds the city.
Within an hour's drive are spectacular lakes,
forests, seaside resorts and hot springs in
stunning mountain settings. Many visitors claim
that the scenery resembles northern Europe.
Hokkaido's geographical position provides warm,
dry summers and crisp, cold, snowy winters
(skiing and snowboarding are popular). Sapporo
organizes international events, including the
Pacific Music Festival held every summer, and
the Sapporo Snow Festival. Many of Japan's
leading companies have established branches in
Sapporo and more than 100 schools of higher
learning are located there. The nearby New
Chitose International Airport offers numerous
domestic flights from most of Japan's big
cities, Tokyo and Osaka. It also caters for
international destinations such as Seoul,
Honolulu and Amsterdam.
In 1987, our Japanese school in Sapporo, Japan
became the first language school in Hokkaido
Prefecture to establish a Japanese language
program. Our school is officially a member of
the APJLE (Association for the Promotion of
Japanese Language Education). Sapporo
Immigration Bureau approved our school as a high
quality institution.
Our school is located in the Maruyama district,
which is known for it sophisticated atmosphere
and unspoiled natural surroundings. The Maruyama
area is connected to downtown Sapporo by subway,
and the subway station is within walking
distance of the school. There are also many
foreign consulates (USA., Australia, Germany,
Republic of Korea, China, Philippines, Russia)
in the neighborhood. Some 180 students from 24
countries are learning here, and our alumni
exceed 1,000. Many have gone on to study at
Japanese universities - more than 80% in recent
years.
