The Development and Publication of an Original Can-Do List for the Practical Japanese Communication Test

Abstract

This study reports on the development and publication of an original Can-Do List for the Practical Japanese Communication Test (PJC). The creation of this list was guided primarily by the PJC's official guidebook and corresponding examination content. This was carried out based on the test's core objective: to facilitate the acquisition of Japanese language proficiency necessary for personnel to achieve immediate effectiveness within a corporate environment. Moving forward, the main focus will be placed on monitoring examinees' acquisition levels and the practical application of their skills in societal contexts.
