JASAL 2026 will take place at Osaka Institute of Technology (OIT), Omiya Campus in Osaka, on Saturday, 10th October, 2026.
We also hope to offer a SAC Tour of the Language Learning Center (LLC), the self-access centre at OIT, on the afternoon of Friday, 9th October, and an online component to the conference – more details to follow later.
Thank you to the team at OIT, led by JASAL board member Christopher Phelps, for everything they have already done, and will do from now, to prepare for the conference.
We will share more details about the conference theme, plenary, basic schedule and call for papers around Golden Week, so for now please save the date and start thinking about possible self-access research and practices you would like to contribute.
This will be a 3-day weekend (for those of us who get the national holiday!) so we recommend booking accommodation as soon as possible.
