After about 10 years of successful activities the well-known Research Institute of Japanese Language Education acquired non-profit organization status and embarked on a new era as NPO Research Institute for Japanese Language Education.

In this new era we are committed to assisting with the development of even better programs for both teachers and learners of Japanese and are actively seeking more members.

With the assistance of our wide membership base, we hope to engage in mutually beneficial exchanges and make significant contributions to the field of Japanese Language Education.

I would like to take this opportunity to encourage all teachers and learners of Japanese to join our Institute.
