The purpose of the National Japanese Exam is to…

• serve as a diagnostic assessment of Japanese language skills. By viewing the results, teachers can determine their students' strengths and weaknesses in reading, listening, grammar, vocabulary, and cultural knowledge. Teachers should combine the NJE with their own additional assessments to get a clear picture of student proficiency levels;
• motivate students to further their study of and interest in Japanese language and culture;
• advocate for the standards-based, proficiency-oriented, and content-based teaching and learning of Japanese language and culture.
