Program Details

Program participants will accompany World Journal Youth Club/Chinese Daily News Staff on a 2 week cultural/study tour of Beijing and Shanghai.
Participants will be enrolled in a short term Leadership Training Program (acceptable as college credit at most Universities) at Dale Carnegie, Beijing; this is the cornerstone of the program.

Additional Cultural and Business-oriented trips and tours are planned, including home stay with Beijing locals, tours of the DHL and Microsoft offices in Shanghai and Beijing and the site of the upcoming World Expo in Shanghai, in addition to numerous recently constructed landmarks and points of interest related to the 2008 Summer Olympic Games.

The program represents an opportunity for students from the Chinese American community to obtain a more detailed, first-hand perspective on their cultural roots and provide all students with a better understanding of Modern China, as it exists within both business and cultural spheres. We are looking for sponsorship of up to $10,000 dollars to help us cover advertising costs of the program, and to help solidify a new aspect of the program introduced in the previous iteration of the program: the Talented Youth Scholarship.
