However, International Cooperation Department specially arranged live broadcast for the training course to show administrative staffs around on GMU and Washington DC where GMU is based while offering a detailed introduction to how the US universities have coped with covid-19 pandemic.  

The online training course served as a beneficial supplement considering the constant impact of covid-19 pandemic upon education. BISTU administrative staffs have obtained a sound understanding of educational system and administrative operations of the US universities and conducted a number of discussions with the US peers on actual problems and issues at work. It laid a solid foundation for strengthening the comprehensive competence of the University in educational globalization.
