About
ASDAN is both a curriculum development organization and an examination board, which provides a wide variety of courses, resources and qualifications that teachers use to recognize and reward activities undertaken by young people outside of their formal academic subject work. ASDAN develops and accredit skills for learning, employment and living. It was founded 30 years ago and now works with 6,000 schools, colleges and education providers across the UK. Its headquarters are in Bristol, England.
In 2011 ASDAN formed a partnership with SEED International to create ASDAN China, with an office in Beijing. Our activities range from work with high schools across China, to running unique mini-MBA programmes in Europe, UK & USA, to an intensive Model United Nation conferences in the USA, to participation in Silk Road cultural trips across China, and to volunteer programmes on Hainan.
Currently, there are over 4,000 Chinese students involved in ASDAN programmes each year, and the number is growing very fast. Because of this rapid growth ASDAN China is looking to recruit graduates from EU or UK universities to join its young and dynamic “Project China” team in our Beijing office. Currently we have more than 40 people in Beijing, with 40% from the UK, USA, EU or South America, and the remainder Chinese nationals. 90% of our staff have been with the company for at least 12 months.
