Introduction

In face of the opportunities and challenges brought forward by economic globalization and China's accession to the WTO, improvement of public administration of the government has become a key link in gaining the initiative amongst increasingly fierce international competition. For this reason, the Devleopment Research Center (DRC) of the State Council, the School of Public Administration at Tsinghua University and the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University are jointly running the Executive Training Program for Public Administration. With a term of 5 years, the program trains about 60 director generals annually from the central and local governments.
CDRF is responsible for organizing the training program and acquiring finance for domestic training.
In the past 3 years since Phase I in 2002, the general feedback from the trainees is that the program has significantly broadened their horizon, improved their strategic thinking and enhanced their ability for problem analysis and solution. Outstanding in performance during the training period, the Chinese officials won extensive favorable comments from Harvard trainers. The program is a successful attempt at joint training of officials through Chinese-foreign cooperation.
