Description

In May 2017, Addis Ababa Bole International Airport said it had seen 70 Ethiopian customer service professionals graduate recently from a Chinese language training program aimed at providing better service to Chinese passengers. The Chinese Embassy in Addis Ababa organized the program in partnership with the Confucius Institute. The language training was performed over a 10-week period. According to China Daily, a second round of training was due to start soon after May 2017. It is unclear how much the training cost the Chinese embassy and/or the Confucius Institute.
