Abstract

Transnational higher education is an increasingly prominent service format that numerous universities have engaged with in recent years as it provides an opportunity to realise development goals, generate income, and promote internationalization initiatives. In China, transnational, Sino-foreign cooperative initiatives are an established niche area. In 2023, the number of collaborative initiatives within the country was believed to be as high as 1400. Unsurprisingly, working within these novel environments can prove challenging necessitating systematic onboarding and measured training and professional development. This chapter considers the case of a Sino-British university in China and examines the training and professional development needs of a selection of the staff.
