These courses are open to college or university professors, teachers, advanced postdoctoral researchers, and other qualified professionals who have taken the Center's regular program or have completed two years of college-level Japanese or the equivalent. The professional training courses normally consist of either two or four hours of individual tutorial instruction per week.
Instruction is designed to accommodate individual needs and competence.
Since the Center's personnel resources are limited, it may not be possible to accept all eligible applicants. Fees are payable in advance and cannot be refunded or prorated. An application form may be downloaded here. Inquiries and requests for further information on for the Professional Program may be directed to the Center in Yokohama after September 1.
