CIBT Education Group Inc. (TSX: MBA and OTCQX: MBAIF) (“CIBT Group”) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, King George International College (“KGIC”), one of the largest private English training schools in Canada, has launched the 2nd and 3rd KGIC Education Centers (the “Centers”) in Hangzhou, China, following the launch of its Beijing KGIC Education Center. Hangzhou is located 180 kilometers southwest of Shanghai with population of 8.7 million and considered one of the wealthiest cities in China.

The Centers were created from KGIC’s acquisition of Linkman International Language Institute in March, 2013. These two Centers will serve as KGIC’s English training brand in China and their opening represents an important milestone in KGIC’s expansion plan within the central China region. Unlike the growing number of KGIC franchisees under development, these two Centers are wholly-owned subsidiaries of KGIC. Programs offered at these locations are Canadian English curriculums, with western instructors assisting students to adapt to the North American school system, starting from kindergarten and primary school through to university.

The two Centers in Wenyi and Xiaoshan (district of Hangzhou) cover 800 square meters (8,600 square feet) of campus space and are equipped with the latest multimedia learning technology and CIBT Group’s interactive learning platform, the Global Learning Network. The Centers currently enroll over 500 students and KGIC expects to see a large increase in registration due to its competitive advantage of offering western curriculum leveraging a strong Canadian brand, and focusing on improving students’ interactive skills in English for the real world.

The Center will offer two major programs aimed at the specific market niches, “Youth Bridging” and “English for Post-Secondary Education”. The Youth Bridging Program (“YBP”) is targeted at Kindergarten to grade 12 students that have a desire to learn English and to study at North American primary or secondary schools. The Centers will help these students with entrance exam and interview (listening and speaking) preparations, with a focus on improving the student’s interactive skills with Western teachers. The YBP program conducted in China creates a steady pipeline of high academic achievers possessing the level of English proficiency required to pass the vigorous interview and entrance exam imposed by CIBT Group’s top-ranking elite school partners.

The EPE program (English for Post-Secondary Education) is an academic English and university preparation program for senior high school and post-secondary students with an objective of advancing their studies at North American colleges or universities. KGIC has established pathway programs with over 25 colleges and universities in North America. Many of KGICs pathway partners recognize the EPE program as a measurement of English proficiency, allowing students to begin their post-secondary education without presenting a TOEFL or IELTS score.
