Project narrative
In 2010, the Confucius Institute Headquarters (Hanban) and Miami Dade College signed an agreement to establish the Confucius Institute at Miami Dade College. As part of the agreement, Hanban is obligated to provide teaching materials, an annual fund, and numbers of Chinese instructors. The funds are dispersed through a local Bank of China account or other approved bank account created by the institute. The agreement has a 5-year validity and automatically renews at the end of every 5-year term. In 2010, Miami Dade College and Jiangsu Normal University (江苏师范大学), the cooperating partner, signed a supplementary implementation agreement. Jiangsu Normal University agreed to provide one or two visiting scholars annually, donate teaching materials, and receive student study groups. The Confucius Institute was officially established on April 29, 2010. The Confucius Institute closed in December 2019.

This issue merits further investigation.
