Since 1981

Serving the educational needs of China since 1981, we established cooperation with the State Administration of Foreign Expert Affairs (SAFEA) to provide foreign teachers to China after the Open Door policy. Partnering with the China Education Association for International Exchange (CEAIE) since 1985, we have trained more than 75,000 Chinese teachers and have provided English immersion and global preparation skills to Chinese high school students. Pinnacle is also SAFEA’s chosen partner for the development of the TEFL in China online training course and accompanying textbook for foreign teachers seeking to complete the TEFL in China Certificate to teach in China.

Through the years, our steps have expanded to other countries where we have partnered with national and local governments as well as educational institutions to provide national teacher-training programs, year-long teacher placements, and other initiatives that respond to unique educational needs. Our history and steps of growth show the footprints of our partners and friends who have cheered, supported, and guided us as they continue to walk beside us. We maintain the same standard of excellence and desire for excellent service as we have now expanded to 15 countries of operation worldwide.
