Japan publishes an official register: Accredited Japanese-language education institutions, from the MEXT. We read it weekly, and where we have matched an institution to it the profile carries a mark.
95 listings in Japan. No account needed.
We list 95 language schools in Japan. Across all its institutions, the subjects we hold most data for are medicine and health, engineering, agriculture and environment, nursing and midwifery. Each profile names the public register it comes from and links to the institution's own website, which is where fees and admissions are confirmed.
