For Schools

DENO partners with schools and universities to enhance educational cooperation and innovation between the United States and China. We do this by developing international language programs in China, facilitating partnerships with Chinese educational institutions and building relationships with key education and government officials, thus fostering communication and providing a cultural bridge for all participants. Partnerships may be comprised of short and long-term collaborative certificate and degree programs, online classes, and professional development and training exchanges.
