Japanese Government Accreditation

Since 2015, GenkiJACS’ Fukuoka Japanese school is fully accredited by the Japanese government to provide student visas for long-term study. The detailed and exacting accreditation process means you can trust that our teachers and courses meet the government’s high standards. The benefits of studying on a student visa include longer stays, work rights, and student discounts. In addition, our Nagoya branch is accredited through our partner school I.C.NAGOYA.

Star Awards

The Star Awards are the language school industry equivalent of the Oscars, where each year people vote in more than 20 categories to decide the top performers in the industry. Having been nominated by popular vote as one of the world's star language schools every year from 2009 to 2021, Genki Japanese Language School won the World Language Schools category in 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020/2021! This means we’re not just the top Japanese language school in the world for those years, but the top language school worldwide! This is an incredible honor for us, particularly as we are the first Japanese language school ever to win this award, and the only one to win it multiple times.
