Dr. Tony. BCIT President Knowles has deep feelings for China. We attach great importance to exploring and developing friendly and cooperative relations with China. In recent years, BCIT has cooperated with some ministries and commissions of the Canadian government, such as the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Public Security, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs. ), and managed and implemented a number of bilateral cooperation projects between Chinese and Canadian governments. Through these projects, more than 2,000 government officials, managers and technicians from the industrial and commercial circles have received relevant training in policy planning, management, operation and technology in Canada. Through the management and implementation of cooperative projects in China, BCIT has established a good reputation in many fields in China, and has been approved by the State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs as the first batch of overseas training bases since 1999.

The Canadian Prime Minister once commented on BCIT: In the past twenty years, Columbia University of Technology has played an indispensable role in students' personal career development. Schools provide valuable educational motivation for young people in China, and at the same time promote the interaction between communities. I believe that the history of this school will be an inspiration and guidance for future generations.
