Project narrative

On June 4, 2012, the Confucius Institute Headquarters (Hanban) and the Clark County School District (CCSD) signed an agreement to establish the Confucius Institute at Clark County School District. 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 2012, CCSD and College Board (大学理事会项目), the cooperating partner, signed a supplementary implementation agreement. College Board agreed to provide one or two visiting scholars annually, donate teaching materials, and receive student study groups. The Confucius Institute was officially established on August 30, 2012.
