■Measuring the practical communication ability required for Japanese-language interaction

Certify has been offering a communication test aimed at Japanese candidates for over 10 years since 2003. Based on our track record and expertise gained from analyzing test results, we have now established a communication test intended for non-native speakers of Japanese. To give an example, in some situations it may be appropriate to use the phrase “Excuse me," while in other situations it may not. One feature of the Practical Japanese Communication Exam is its inclusion of problems that test whether students are able to understand such subtle differences.

■Measuring naturalness of conversation, ability to adapt to situations, ability to adjust to others, and Japanese cultural understanding

The exam contains no problems that measure only grammar or reading/writing of kanji characters. Exam questions are based on considerations such as appropriateness of wording, appropriateness of topic, and appropriateness of setting distance with other parties in the flow of conversational expression.
