The Yamasa Institute has invested in a new facility called the CALL Seminar center located on the second floor of Aoi Hall. The room is large, and contains individual workstations (each with privacy of 2 meter deep, 1.48 meter high partitions), is carpeted and air-conditioned and has 4 centimeters of glass wool sound insulation in all walls.

Each of the computers is high-spec, and is connected to our database and video servers through a 100MB LAN. The desks are 120cm X 80cm, and as we provide each workstation with a flatscreen monitor there is plenty of room for books, notes etc - you do not need to restrict yourself only to online and intranet resources.

A CALL Seminar is 50 minutes long, and a member of the OCJS faculty is in the room at all times and for one-to-one conversation practice or assistance with questions concerning the language, as well as any questions concerning the use of the resources. Additional staff are always near at hand, as the OCJS faculty office is conveniently located next door, with a sound proof door so that you are distracted by noises such as telephones etc.
