Delegation members visit the National Association of Secondary School Principals

The Education Delegation to the United States, which takes place twice every year, has been administered by the National Committee since 1980. Delegations are composed of education officials and school administrators from across China. Funded by the United States Department of Education, this program enables participants to travel across the United States observing successes and failures at work within the American education system.

Career counseling for college students is the focus for 2009 and 2010. Delegation members are interested in learning generally about the frameworks in place to support college graduates in their search for employment.

The delegations visit federal governmental agencies and non-governmental organizations involved in policy formation, as well as an array of schools including community, state, and private universities. They also visit private companies to discuss recruiting.
