KAI participates in the Nippon Foundation’s Japanese Language School Scholarship for evacuees from Ukraine. We have already accepted five of them since last year and provided them with Japanese language education.
We hope that the Nippon Foundation’s new scholarship program will provide opportunities for Japanese language education to evacuees from Ukraine who are seriously interested in learning Japanese for their future.

Track Record
KAI Japanese Language School (KAI) is one of the founding members of JSUS (Japanese Supports for Ukrainian Students) and has been supporting evacuees from Ukraine since last March. Since last May, we have accepted five Ukrainian evacuees to our General Course free of charge. One has already found a job, and the other four are still taking the course and improving their Japanese language skills.
If you want to master Japanese and find a job in Japan, we will support you. Please feel free to contact us.
