Partnership opportunities in China with education agencies
The British Council China has been and remains committed to raising the profile of UK education and exploring maximum opportunities for our partner institutions in the China market.
In China, agents play an important role in guiding students through their decision making process. Around 60 per cent of students use education agents for their overseas studies applications. These are the front line ‘sales’ representatives for UK education, supporting our work to recruit quality and genuine Chinese students, and they are closely in touch with market sentiments.
The British Council China has established a very close and strategic network with agents. In 2013, we will continue to organise agent activities and we have got very positive feedback from most of the UK institutions involved. We would like to encourage you to make use of these activities to further expand and strengthen your agent network in China.
In order to provide a full picture of how to work with agents in China, we have outlined the ongoing agent events in year 2013-2014 for your marketing planning.
