About Japanese Language NAT-TEST (CBT)

The Japanese Language NAT-TEST is an examination that measures the Japanese language proficiency of students who are not native Japanese speakers. The tests are separated by different (five levels) and general proficiency is measured in three areas: Grammar/Vocabulary, Listening and Reading Comprehension. The format of the exam and the types of questions are based on those that often appear on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT).

Computer-Based Testing (CBT) allows candidates to take the exam using a computer at an authorized test center. This modern approach provides flexibility and efficiency in the examination process, ensuring that results are processed accurately and securely.

The administration committee of the Japanese Language NAT-TEST does not allow any improprieties concerning test taking. It is our duty to confirm the identities of all test takers. To do this, we issue application tickets with the test taker's photo and identifying information. The proctors at each exam site also confirm the identities of each test taker by making sure they have identification that matches their application ticket.

In order to ensure the integrity of all parts of the examination process, all of our test takers, users and administrators have agreed to abide by the NAT-TEST Code of Honor, which helps ensure the honest behavior of all those involved with the exam. We thank you all for your cooperation.
