The document was signed by Denise Amyot, President and CEO of Colleges and Institutes Canada (CIC) (formerly the Association of Canadian Community Colleges - ACCC), and Trinh Quan Dong, General Director of the Khoi Nguyen Education Investment and Development Joint-Stock Company (KNE).
Addressing the signing ceremony in Ottawa on June 27, Amyot expressed her pleasure at the opportunity for cooperation in the field with Vietnam, and said it will help Canada popularise its colleges in the country, provide technical assistance to the establishment of an English academy and a Canadian-modelled college in Ho Chi Minh City, and promote student exchange programmes with foreign universities and colleges.
