In terms of content, this course strives to combine theory with practice, aiming to help GA practitioners, relevant executives, and business department leaders to promote mutual understanding and cooperation with more accurate, efficient, and systematic internal communication, so as to further facilitate good communication and cooperation between MNCs and Chinese government agencies on business needs.
