"To me, Tianjin is a significant city that has given me the opportunity to learn about EPIP and other courses in the Luban Workshop's Ethiopia Training Program. During today's tour I've seen numerous new techniques. Tianjin is so impressive and quite different from its condition 60 years ago. The development of this seaside city is beyond imagination, and I'm glad to witness all these changes."
EPIP refers to engineering, practice, innovation and project and is an educational model initiated by Tianjin educational authorities five years ago to operate the Luban Workshop, which is designed to offer high-end Chinese technical skills training that can help overseas college students meet the requirements of the emerging global market.
