The Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) is a standardized test that evaluates and certifies the Japanese language proficiency of non-native speakers. It is divided into five levels, from N1 (the most advanced) to N5 (the most basic), allowing learners to assess their skills in reading, listening, and understanding Japanese. The JLPT is held twice a year in many countries, making it accessible to a wide range of learners. Passing the test can enhance job opportunities and academic prospects in Japan, as it demonstrates a certain level of proficiency in the Japanese language.
