Each Confucius Institute is free to develop its own range of programs and services depending on the local conditions. These include assistance in providing undergraduate instruction and curriculum development in Chinese language at UAA, offering non-credit courses in Chinese language and culture to the Anchorage community, presenting programs of speakers on aspects of Chinese culture and cultural performances, and assisting K-12 programs with curriculum and other resources to further the teaching of Chinese.
The UAA CI is working to provide a range of services to assist local business, schools and ordinary citizens to learn more about China and to facilitate interactions with China. These include tailored courses in Chinese business and protocol, media and translation services, and administering the HSK examination (Chinese language proficiency test) and certification of Chinese Language teachers. Also, through training, workshops and cultural events the CI will also facilitate cultural exchange and study-abroad opportunities in China for UAA students and faculty.
The vision of UAA CI is to become an important center for the cultivation of Alaska-China relations, to provide expertise in Chinese language and culture training, and to be an important resource for our educational institutions.
