The classes are designed for students who have completed the introductory level of Japanese, are physically unable to travel to Japan, or wish to improve their Japanese language skills, especially before coming to Japan to study. SWU students also participate in the online classes as "Nihongo Supporters" to help students practice conversations and comment on presentations. Those who have completed the program will receive an official certificate and a transcript with SWU credits.
