The NJE started in 2010 as a proficiency-oriented, standards-based, and culture-related assessment tool for middle school (junior high), high school, and college students who are studying Japanese as a second language. It provides a way for students to test their Japanese skills and participate in a nationwide exam with awards for high achievement.
