Thompson Rivers University World Lands Third Major Contract for Pre-Olympic Training in China
Thompson Rivers University (TRU) in Kamloops has won a third major contract for training related to the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in China. The contract is with China Net Communications (CNC), the largest telecommunications company in China and the official telecommunications provider to the 2008 Summer Olympics. TRU World, the international education division of the university, put forward the bid that will see TRU develop and deliver an eight-week intensive Media English and Media Terminology training program for three different groups of CNC site managers and high level company officials who will work closely with media agencies and television networks during the 2008 Summer Games in China. In two previous training programs delivered by TRU over the past year, site managers and other officials of China Net Communications have been provided with English language and customer service and hospitality training specific to their upcoming roles with CNC in providing services and support to the world media next summer. “I believe we have exceeded their expectations in the first two contracts, and because of that, we are honoured and delighted to have won this third opportunity to help them prepare for next summer” said Cyndi McLeod, Associate Vice-President of TRU World. “I truly believe that the success of our training programs and the strong relationships we have with clients in China and elsewhere have elevated TRU into the upper echelons of this kind of work in Canada” add McLeod, who this week is negotiating new training opportunities in Chile, where TRU is currently providing language and western education methods training to 160 teachers in the municipality of Vigna del Mar.
