Education & Training

For over 70 years, we have been supporting our Members and Clients with the provision of on-the-ground practical advice in China and the UK, the delivery of expert analysis and insights, and senior level access and advocacy.

With our headquarters in London and presence across ten Chinese cities, we maintain strong relationships with both the UK and Chinese governments, as well as key stakeholders across industry, academia, and professional service providers.
