About Jiangsu Teachers’ Training Project
Jiangsu Teachers’ Training Project started in
2004. It is sponsored by the Jiangsu
Provincial Department of Education (JPDE)
and supported by 13 Municipal Education
Bureaus of Jiangsu Province. Each year, we
introduce around 120 short-term foreign
teachers through Jiangsu Teachers’ Training
Project, training Chinese teachers in over 60
teaching sites throughout Jiangsu Province.
The purpose of the project is to provide
opportunities for Chinese teachers in
kindergarten, primary and secondary
education to improve their English language
teaching skills and strategies. It is also a
great opportunity for foreign teachers to
experience a different culture. In the
meantime, this project will facilitate the
internationalization of Jiangsu Province in
the area of education as well as providing
comprehensive support and service related to
all kinds of international teachers’ exchange
programs. This project is coordinated by
Jiangsu Education Services for International
Exchange (JESIE).
