Training Programs
At the Japan Foundation Japanese-Language Institute, Urawa, we provide a variety of training programs primarily for non-native Japanese-language teachers who are active in different parts of the world. Since the Institute opened in 1989, more than 14,000 teachers have participated in our programs, and today, “graduates of URAWA” are contributing to Japanese-language education across the globe.
Most participants are in-service Japanese-language teachers working at educational institutions abroad.
At the Institute, teachers from diverse nationalities and linguistic backgrounds come together to receive training, fostering a global network of Japanese-language educators.
