Education exhibition scheduled
( 2003-09-10 09:49) (China Daily)
The 2003 China International Education Exhibition will be launched in October
in Beijing and Shanghai.
Meanwhile, the Fourth China International Forum on Education will be held in
the capital as well.
According to sources with the China Education Association for International
Exchange, a nationwide non-governmental organization which is sponsoring the
event, at least 200 universities from home and abroad will attend the exhibition
and nearly 1,000 professionals will be available for consultations for people
interested in studying abroad.
As one of the highlights in this exhibition, there are eight state-level
educational organizations from countries including Germany, Australia, South
Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, France, the United Kingdom and Canada, which have
encouraged local universities and colleges to participate in the exhibition as a
group.
"Co-operating with state-level educational organizations is one of the steps
we took to bring more accurate information about authentic foreign universities
to our people who want to study abroad," said Zong Wa, a senior staffer with the
association.
He said that the exhibition's organizing committee is doing everything to
ensure no fake foreign universities gain access to the exhibition, since more
and more people in China are wary of being cheated in recent years.
