ACC Participated in the Graduation Ceremony of Teachers Training for Myanmar Vocational Education

On 29 December 2015, the graduation ceremony of a 4-week training programme for Myanmar vocational education teachers was held in Zhejiang Yalong Educational Equipment Joint-Stock Co., LTD. Ms. Zhang Jing, Education Officer of ASEAN-China Centre (ACC) represented ACC to participate in the ceremony and made remarks.

 Since the establishment of the partnership with ACC in 2014, under the support and coordination by ACC, Yalong has donated educational products to Thailand and Indonesia. The 4-week training course for Myanmar vocational education teachers was the forerunner for Yalong’s donation to Myanmar vocational institutes in early 2016. Selected by the Ministry of Education of Myanmar, 20 young teachers from 3 Government Technical Institutes of Myanmar were trained in Yalong from 2 to 29 December 2015. They accepted Yalong’s training courses on skills and techniques, teaching concepts, course design and practices, which helped them to improve skills and abilities, as well as to better understand the current development of vocational education in China.

Ms. Zhang Jing, on behalf of ACC, extended congratulations to the trainees, and appreciated Yalong’s efforts and contribution in promoting China-Myanmar vocational education cooperation and exchanges. She briefed on ACC’s role and efforts in education, and expected to strengthen the cooperation with relative sides in 2016, to jointly contribute to the Year of ASEAN-China Educational Exchange.
