Strengthening Collaboration, Unlocking Chinese-Language and International Educational Potential
Rooted in the spirit of unlocking global competence while reinforcing the Chinese language foundation for students in the local area and Southeast Asia, the parties agreed to collaborate in building a comprehensive educational solution ecosystem, focusing on three core pillars:
Admissions and Specialized Exam Preparation Program for Overseas Chinese Students
Designing pathways to support students with overseas Chinese status, as well as students from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, to legitimately participate in the National Joint College Entrance Examination for Overseas Chinese Students into Chinese universities through two flexible training models:
- The 2+1 Model: Students complete two years of study at VHIS followed by one year of intensive preparatory training at LIS.
- The 3+3+3 Model: Students study the standard curriculum at VHIS during the academic year, combined with participating in intensive summer preparatory courses in China during the summer break for three consecutive years.
Establishment of the International Study Abroad Support Center
CIAEA and partners will provide strategic counseling, build portfolio profiles, and guide students in applying to prestigious universities across the UK, the US, Europe, Japan, South Korea, Singapore and beyond.
Faculty Collaboration and Professional Development
Promoting academic exchange activities among teachers, sharing model lesson plans, organizing regular professional development workshops, and co-developing international-standard curriculum frameworks.
A Breakthrough: Multi-Pathway Admissions Model for Viet Hoa Students
Through the academic networks of CIAEA and LIS, VHIS students will benefit from a multi-directional admissions model offering three clear development pathways:
- Chinese University Pathway: Gaining access to a well-structured preparation track for the Joint Entrance Examination for Overseas Chinese Students, dedicated admission schemes for Hong Kong–Macao–Taiwan students, and international student admissions.
- Global Study Abroad Pathway: Enhancing competitive advantages in academic excellence and foreign language proficiency to enter top-tier universities across Western and Asian nations.
- Taiwan University Pathway: Optimizing and sustaining the school's existing admissions mechanisms effectively.
Distinctive Values Delivered to the Next Generation
The strategic collaboration among CIAEA, LIS, and VHIS does not merely broaden academic programs, but directly delivers tangible benefits to students:
- Receiving personalized academic advising and comprehensive mentorship throughout all educational stages.
- Cultivating outstanding bilingual competence, harmoniously blending the Chinese language with international academic capabilities.
- Ensuring regulatory compliance and valid documentation for student cohorts with overseas Chinese status.
- Increasing university admission and scholarship success rates through distinctive competitive portfolios.
