Canada continues to be recognized in China as an excellent destination for study and research and academic collaboration. In addition to our quality of education, Chinese students are attracted to our standard of living and quality of life, secure cities, and work and immigration opportunities after graduation. China remains the single largest source of international students and partnerships for BC’s international education sector. 

Please join China’s Trade Commissioner network responsible for international education, visa and study permit, to learn about contemporary market intelligence, visa processing updates, key data, trends, developments, opportunities, and analysis on the issues currently impacting the Chinese education sector. Our presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
