Supporting North Harbour Institute of Technical Learning's 2002 Expansion in China
The institute wanted to teach into China but had no accredited China curriculum and no bridge between two very different education systems. It gained both: a programme it could launch, and the teaching capacity to deliver it.
Typical fit: established businesses, roughly 20–100 people.

Project OverviewIn 2002, the North Harbour Institute of Technical Learning set out to extend its teaching into China and needed an accredited China business curriculum built across two very different education systems. What it gained was a curriculum grounded in real China practice, and the support to deliver it credibly.
Client Challenge
The institute wanted to extend its education offering into the Chinese market and needed a structured, credible way to do so. That meant building an accredited China business curriculum from scratch, while bridging two very different education systems and business cultures.
What the Institute Gained
- A China market entry curriculum tailored to its academic standards, ready to teach rather than assemble
- Cross-cultural teaching and content support, so delivery did not stumble on language or method
- A curriculum connected to real China business practice and local market context, not theory
- An ongoing liaison with its Chinese counterparts, keeping the relationship and the programme alive
Results Achieved
- The institute launched accredited China business programmes
- Students gained practical, structured access to China market knowledge
- The expansion strengthened the institute's position as an international education provider
