TNE Virtual Mission to South East Asia March 2021

JOIN OUR FIRST EVER VIRTUAL TNE MISSION TO SOUTH EAST ASIA

The British Council and the Department for International Trade (DIT) are delighted to invite UK Higher Education Institutions who are interested in Transnational Education to the first ever virtual TNE Mission to South East Asia. TNE is gaining increased recognition among higher education institutions in South East Asia. This virtual mission has therefore been developed by the British Council and DIT in order to give UK higher education institutions the opportunity to explore TNE partnerships in the region. The virtual mission is designed to support UK institutions with their TNE partnerships in South East Asia at a time when international travel restrictions makes in-person visits impossible.

The Mission will offer the opportunity for UK universities to network and have a one-to-one discussion with universities from across South East Asia. The Mission will offer a deep dive presentation and the high-level meetings with governmental bodies from the three new emerging markets: Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
