Please confirm your email address.
Please note - J-Course is an exclusive service offered to Australian residents only.

If you have prior experience studying Japanese and would like to continue your studies through J-Course, please follow the steps below.

1. Submit an enquiry

  1. Complete the enquiry form below, including details about your Japanese language background and experience
  2. Use our Self-Level Checker form below to help us determine which of our courses is most suitable for you
  3. Once submitted, the J-Course team will get in touch with you shortly after to discuss with you the next steps

 

*Please Note:

  • Spots in classes may not always be immediately available. In this case, you will be given the option of being placed on a waiting list, where you’ll be contacted once a spot becomes available.
  • Non-beginners (i.e. those wishing to enrol in the Elementary 1 course or higher) are eligible to apply to join a course at any time during the academic year. Class availabilities will determine when you will be able to commence your studies with us.

2. Placement Test

Once a spot in class becomes available, the J-Course team will contact you to complete a placement test, so we can confirm the most suitable class level for you.

The placement test consists of a written assessment that will be emailed to you and a mini-interview with our Language Consultant conducted online via Zoom.

 

*Please note – the placement test is additional to the Self-Level Checker

3. Enrolment

  • Once we have confirmed your current Japanese level, you will be sent an enrolment offer email, where a spot is available in your agreed class.
  • Enrolment, included purchase of textbook(s) and payment of course fees, are made via Eventbrite or in person at our Chippendale center.
  • Once the payment has been successfully completed, you will receive an enrolment confirmation email from the J-Course team including everything you need to know about your class and being a J-Course student.
