Education Japan was formulated in 1998 by a group of students of the Japanese language who were disappointed at the lack of reliable information regarding Japanese language schools in Japan. Launched in 2001, Education Japan is increasingly recognised as the leading source of independent information regarding Japanese language programs and Japanese teaching institutions.

All Education Japan staff and contributors are or were students of Japanese in Japan, and have been through the frustrating experience of trying to select a program or school from abroad or within Japan.

Education Japan aims to provide all the information that you require so that you can make clear decisions regarding your studies in Japan with all the facts at hand.

We have done what you are hoping to do. We have learnt the lessons, so you don't need to make expensive mistakes. These pages provide you with all the information that you need for coming to Japan, making an informed choice about language study, and turning your hopes for study in Japan into reality.

Please feel free to use Education Japan with confidence. If you have any information that you think is worth adding, please feel free to contribute. Education Japan is an online community of people, professional and student, interested in, studying in, working in, and above all living and enjoying all that Japan has to offer.
