Club France,
home of French Education Alumni
Initiated by the French embassy in March 2008, Club France, welcomed over 1000 alumni originating from China during a cocktail organised the 18th of October in Beijing.

Club France was created to recognize graduates that had benefited from an education in France.Since 1990, over 40,000 Chinese nationals have become alumni of French institutions.

Club France in ChinaThose “made in France alumni” would like to use this French link to keep in contact with former alumni and to keep track of their career developments after their return to China. Club France thus becomes a gateway to job offers by local French enterprises, a network of “made in France” alumni, and a link to French current events. With the birth of Club France in China, Taiwanese alumni can also find their home through the website of www.fr-alumni.org.tw.

Reims Management School’s IMBA program has educated nearly 100 high potential individuals from China since the 90’s and they can now be found playing an important role in various industries in China and abroad.

EMBA Study Tour: China 2008
Programme:
Lectures on “Cross Cultural Management” by Mr Li Yong and “Business Practices and Business Strategy in China” by Liu Baocheng - Company visits (Hitachi China and Lenovo) - Visit of Shanghai and Beijing (Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Great Wall) …
CHINA
Testimony of a participant:
“China,
What an astonishing country mixing at the same time modernity and tradition! It was a total experience! First the business hub: Shanghai, then to the cultural centre, Beijing. We travelled between our classes on doing business in and with China, company visits and with much emotion, discovered the temples, the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square (like on TV). The discovery of food was another adventure. Nothing to do with our Chinese restaurants back home: a table in the middle which turns and full of the various dishes and varied with tastes quite special and quite different from what we have in France. And odours!!!! Of all kinds and not always overwhelming, an expression of happiness!!!

Happy discovery and conquest of China by the EXEC 12!!!“
