About Us

The Education & Training Export Consortium (ETEC) is a market development cooperator project of the U.S. Department of Commerce, International Trade Administration and RCC Center for International Trade Development to promote the export of U.S. education services to Asia.

Funds for ETEC come from two primary sources: the US Department of Commerce Market Development Cooperator Program (MDCP) , a public-private partnership developed to help small- and medium-sized US firms expand exports that support jobs, AND Riverside Community College - Center for International Trade Development (CITD), funded by the California Community College's Economic and Workforce Development Program.

Working with education service providers, government and international partners, ETEC:

1. Matches training and education needs of international clients with the right providers (contact us)
2. Develops non-traditional channels for marketing education services internationally (events&activities).
3. Provides a network for collaboration amongst business, education and government to more successfully respond to international training and education opportunities. (events&activities)
