JBPP and National Holidays
Japan celebrates a large number of national holidays. In order to minimize disruption to the teaching schedule, Yamasa follows its own holiday schedule. National holidays are generally observed during the breaks between academic terms, excluding holidays where the faculty's family commitments make this impossible (e.g., Golden Week and the Obon festival). Please note that Format 1 classes will be held during Golden Week and Obon.
| Academic Term | Format 1 | Format 2 | Format 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Spring 2011 | None | Golden Week: May 4 ~ 8 | Golden Week: May 4 ~ 8 |
| Summer 2011 | None | Obon: August 12 ~ 15 | Obon: August 12 ~ 15 |
| Autumn 2011 | None | None | None |
| Winter 2011~2012 | None | None | None |
