List of recognized and accredited Dutch higher education institutions in China finally updatedList of recognized and accredited Dutch higher education institutions in China finally updated!

 
The list of recognized Dutch higher education institutions published on the Chinese Ministry of Education's website has finally been updated and now includes privately funded institutions such as Nyenrode University, Webster University, TIO, Europort, MSM and Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences.
 
Wittenborg University, which has been under Chinese and British management since 2008, has been pushing hard for an update of the list to occur. The list is especially important for working with partners in China, as they can apply for funding of student and teacher exchange if they work with recognized institutions. Wittenborg's partner institute Shanghai Business School is looking to receive support for student and staff exchanges, and Wittenborg University is working together with its other Shanghai partner, Shanghai Finance University, to develop joint programmes for the banking and insurance industry.  
 
Wittenborg learnt that updates to the list on the Chinese Ministry of Education's website are the responsibility of the Dutch Ministry of Education providing the Chinese Embassy Education Department in the Hague with the correct information regarding recognized institutions in the Netherlands. 
 
Through its membership of the NRTO, a body that represents non-funded higher education institutes in the Netherlands, Wittenborg first gained a letter from the Netherlands Ministry of Education in early 2012, which has been used to show partners in China that the list will be updated, and has been extremely useful.
 
A Wittenborg spokesperson today commented: "Surprisingly, after publishing this letter on its website, Wittenborg has been approached by Chinese graduates of other Dutch institutions, not on the list, for verification of the status of their study. Wittenborg naturally assisted these students in any way possible, however the situation was rather absurd."
 
The Dutch Ministry of Education works with a private organization called NUFFIC that promotes Dutch higher education abroad, in a similar fashion to the British Council, and through a vigorous of the NRTO on behalf of all its members, this group was asked to coordinate the update, and although the reaction time has been regrettably slow, the list has now been officially updated, and a full overview of institutions of higher education in the Netherlands has been included.
 
Wittenborg is listed under its original Dutch name "Hogeschool Wittenborg", which is the Dutch translation of University of Applied Sciences. After the celebrations of its 25 Year anniversary in November, Wittenborg intends to completely drop the name 'Hogeschool', which is internationally confusing, and use only "Wittenborg University of Applied Sciences", both within and outside of the Netherlands.
