Special training for overseas students will be featured at an international education exhibition to be held in Shanghai at the end of the month to quell the number of accidents experienced by Chinese students abroad.

There will be a series of lectures on topics ranging from consular protection and cross-cultural exchange, to related services available for Chinese students studying abroad.

“Accident occurrence increases as more and more Chinese students go abroad for study,” said Han Sanjun, an official of the Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange, organizer of the exhibition. “We hope we can help them reduce the risk with better preparation.”
