     Ms Dennis said, "Opening an office in Hong Kong was a clear next step for our organisation because our consulting services in vocational education for countries in the wider Asia region has grown exponentially. We will be able to work side by side with our clients in the region to deliver skilled and future-proofed workers, ensuring the long-term development and growth for their sector or their business."

The fact that we now have a permanent presence based in Hong Kong and are able to add even more value is really exciting."
      
     Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion, Dr Jimmy Chiang, said, "Hong Kong as a well-established international commercial and financial centre is a key market for the education consulting business. Together with its strategic location at the heart of Asia, the city is the ideal place for professional services companies, such as Skills International, to serve clients both locally and regionally.
