This meeting was held last month after HEC Executive Chairman and Acting Chairman Ms. Shaista Sohail met with the Pakistan Tang International Education Group team. HEC senior leadership met with Tang International Education Group’s team again to conduct exchanges and collaboration. It can be seen that HEC has a high degree of recognition of Tang International Education Group’s work and the CCTE model.


With the signing of the agreement on mutual recognition of higher education qualifications between China and Pakistan, in the context of the all-weather strategic partnership, the educational collaboration and exchanges between the two countries will inevitably become closer in the future. Tang International Education Group will continue to serve the institutes of the two countries through Sino-Pakistan education collaboration platform based on the CCTE model, continue to promote the pragmatic development of Sino-Pakistan education collaboration, and provide sustainable talent support for the construction of Sino-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
