Language Program Case Study: Electronics company
In 2006, PRC Study designed and carried out a six-month Mandarin Chinese program for a group of employees of a well-known Japanese electronics company.
As the group had varying levels of Chinese, we recommended dividing them into two classes according to ability level, and planned a course of intensive two-hour classes, three times a week. To minimize disruption to the employees' already busy schedules, our teacher happily travelled to teach the classes in the company's headquarters!
Six months of hard work paid off, with students developing greater confidence and fluency in the language. ※When I arrived I thought I'd never be able to speak Chinese,§ one employee says. ※I used to take a taxi to work every day for convenience 每 now I do it just to practise my Chinese with the driver!§

Executive China Business Program Case Study: Retail Corporation
PRC Study planned a series of seminars and on-site visits for an international retailer, with the participation of both foreign and Chinese retailers, distribution companies and lawyers. Seminars allowed the client to build a solid understanding of the Chinese consumer market, including its implications for advertising and marketing, while learning from the experiences of other foreign retailers on entering the market and dealing with issues like distribution, employment regulations, and food safety.
※We were impressed by the scope of PRC Study's planning 每 they covered all the angles we wanted to find out about, and a few we hadn't thought of, and the on-site visits were an invaluable learning experience for our executives.§ 每 one of the corporation's executives comments on the program.

Business Travel Program Case Study: Travel Company
While simultaneously providing language training for the client's Chinese and foreign staff in Beijing, PRC Study organized a two-week tour of several cities in China for company managers to scout opportunities for expansion of their package tour service.
Meetings were held with local tourism officials, as well as scholars on the field from universities in areas of mass tourism like Yunnan and Sichuan, which gave insight into the practicalities and challenges of organizing tours in the relevant regions. Additionally, visits to specific cultural sites were arranged in collaboration with site management to allow clients to consider possible sites for tours.
One of the managers who participated in the program says: ※We have now set up several offices across China and introduced new tours covering a larger area of China than we previously offered 每 PRC Study's Business Travel Program played a key role in providing the contacts and information we needed to make that step.§
