For-profit private schools: For-profit private schools (education and training institutions) must first submit an application report and a series of relevant certificates to the Education Bureau, such as curriculum design, internal management system, training objectives and other materials. With the approval of the Education Bureau, after obtaining the school license, apply for a business license at the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Legal person qualification, site area, site fire control and school-running funds meet the corresponding provisions. After all the materials are submitted, you can wait for the staff to review and conduct field visits. The business scope of the application should include training and other businesses.
Non-profit private schools: After the Education Bureau or the People's Insurance Bureau obtains the school license, non-profit private schools will ask the Civil Affairs Bureau for the registration certificate, which is the core qualification document for running a school. The new Private Education Promotion Law stipulates that training companies (for-profit private schools) must obtain business licenses and school licenses with training business scope.
