The Pilot Program for Cultural Dialogue
About PPCD
The Pilot Program for Cultural Dialogue (PPCD) was established in 2005 by a group of students at Beijing University. The Program is dedicated to building trust and cooperation between Chinese and American companies through shared experiences leading to an overall improvement in US-China relations. Working closely with business and thought leaders throughout the US and China, PPCD has established two core programs: American Interns in China and Chinese Interns in America.

Summer Practical Training Program
PPCD’s practical training program places highly-qualified, highly-motivated Chinese college and graduate students with ample business experience in US corporate training programs where they can acquire a firm understanding of American business culture and other career-enhancing skills to bring back to China. The participating businesses will, in turn, benefit from exposure to Chinese business culture thus allowing them to better operate in or expand into the Chinese market. PPCD requires that all of its interns are placed in bona fide training programs and not just in general employment.

In the summer of 2006, we successfully sent five Chinese students to intern at Monster Worldwide Inc. and a leading private equity firm for eight weeks in Boston.

These five interns are
Peking Univeristy:
Wang Lang      Guanghua School of Management  01本, CCER 05硕
Song Tao        School of Journalism & Communication 01本, 05硕
Double Major at CCER and School of Mathematical Sciences
Xu Shanshan    School of Economics, 02本
Wang Pengfei    Guanghua School of Management  02本，06硕

ShangHai Jiaotong University:
Cao Yuting      Management, 04硕

PPCD is now recruiting Chinese college students and graduates for internships in the United States in the summer of 2007.
Chinese applicants must:
    be fluent in both written and oral English.
    be enrolled as a full-time college or graduate student at a university in China both this year and next year. So if you're currently in your last year of college or graduate school, you must have a letter from a Chinese university stating that you will be enrolled as a full-time student there starting the fall after your internship.
    have a Chinese passport that is valid at least six months beyond the end of the internship.
