On March 29, 2022, 7:00pm \u2013 8:30pm EDT, the Canada China Business Council (CCBC) hosted the fourth event in the \u201cNavigating China\u2019s 14th FYP by Sector\u201d series, in partnership with the Economist Intelligence Corporate Network. This session focused on the Education sector and was designed to strengthen the ability of Canadian businesses to assess risks and opportunities with regards China\u2019s 14th<\/sup> Five Year Plan (FYP) to improve their competitiveness in the China market. It was led by Mattie Bekink, China Director for the Economist Corporate Network<\/p>\n

The 14th Five-Year Plan and its associated sub-plans (such as the Provincial FYPs and Ministerial FYPs) provides a broad overview of key government targets and policy directives. This \u201cblueprint\u201d can be used by foreign firms to identify clues and opportunities across a range of sectors, including Education.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ms. Bekink noted the recent announcement that Chinese online-education companies were no longer to turn a profit or \u201cuse offshore vehicles that enable their shares to be traded abroad.\u201d This is part of a larger push to promote equality across China, a key piece of context for any foreign firm with operations in the country. Further, new regulatory hurdles and difficulty attracting Chinese students could present new challenges.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The 14th<\/sup> FYP, which places an emphasis on high quality, inclusive education, does, however, still provide opportunities for foreign educational entities operating in the country. For example, China\u2019s Ministry of Education released a policy document in 2021 promoting the \u201cestablishment of Sino-foreign cooperative education\u201d in \u201careas with a strong economic and educational foundation.\u201d There is also a push to promote vocational education in the country, and international cooperation is encouraged via the relevant Action Plan<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One interesting opportunity could come via China\u2019s Free Trade Zones, which are \u201cseen as places for innovation and experimentation.\u201d This enabled the development of the first foreign-owned higher education institution in China, which offers courses in areas that synchronize with China\u2019s focus on the digital economy\/automation. Overall, successful initiatives from Canadian firms will likely help China solve a challenge in the educational sector and\/or advance sectoral goals over the 14th<\/sup> FYP.<\/p>\n
