The Italian Chamber of Commerce in Japan - Spring 2026 Italian Language Course Opens

The Italian Chamber of Commerce in Japan is opening Italian language courses taught by native instructors. Two courses are offered, from introductory to beginner levels, where you can learn enjoyably according to your level. The Italian Chamber of Commerce in Japan (ICCJ), in cooperation with Lingua Viva Italian Language School, an ICCJ member, will open its Spring 2026 Italian Language Courses.
