With the support of the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation of the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China, a Chinese language learning and testing centre was opened in SPbUPTD with the participation of a Chinese delegation.
The centre will be engaged in teaching Chinese language followed by an international qualification exam, as well as organising cultural events. Already this autumn, a teacher from Shenyang Pedagogical University will start training Russian citizens. In 2025, two international qualification exams in Chinese will be held, covering about 100 people. Having a certificate of the international qualification exam will enable Russian citizens to enter educational institutions in China, compete for scholarships for internships in the PRC, work in Chinese and joint Russian-Chinese companies, as well as in Russian organisations that cooperate with China.
