Forging Ahead on a New Journey, Scaling New Heights

Dear Teachers, Students, Alumni, and Friends,

As the new year begins, everything is renewed. At this wonderful moment welcoming 2026, China KEPEI Education Group extends sincere greetings and New Year's blessings to all dedicated faculty and staff, our vibrant students, and friends from all sectors of society who have long cared for and supported KEPEI's development!

This year, we flourished with branches and leaves abundant, our fruits filling the garden; it also marks 30 extraordinary years of tenacious endeavor for the KEPEI community. We now possess 4 undergraduate institutions, 1 secondary vocational school, 8,000 acres of campus land, 3 million square meters of school buildings, 5,000 faculty and staff members, and 100,000 enrolled students. Over three decades, we have sent 300,000 outstanding graduates into society. They are now contributing across China's most dynamic economic regions—the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone, the Huaihai Economic Zone, and the Northern Economic Zone—making significant contributions to China's regional economic development.

This year, we delved deep and planted firm roots, pursuing tangible progress to reach far; we advanced connotative, high-quality development in education. Looking back on 2025, we held firm amidst change and moved forward amidst challenges. Facing profound shifts in the educational landscape, we consistently adhered to a "student-centered, quality-first" approach, continually promoting the connotative construction and high-quality development of our member institutions. We witnessed: Harbin Institute of Petroleum steadily advancing on its path to pursuing master's degree program accreditation; Huaibei Institute of Technology receiving excellent ratings in annual inspections for three consecutive years; Ma'anshan College cultivating distinctive strengths within the soil of its engineering school; Guangdong Institute of Technology deepening its educational and teaching reforms, achieving new leaps in educational quality; Zhaoqing Science and Technology Secondary Vocational School courageously exploring the new track of comprehensive high schools... Each step forward reaffirms our unwavering commitment to "nurturing talent as the foundation, with quality as the soul."

This year, we rode the winds and waves, setting sail to expand our horizons, accelerating international exchange and cooperation in education. Simultaneously, we actively embraced the times and planned for the future. KEPEI Group's "One Domestic, Two International" strategy progressed steadily, with overseas educational initiatives moving from blueprint to practice: the Dubai project entered a critical phase; vocational education cooperation in Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, and other locations unfolded systematically; feasibility studies for operations in Hong Kong and Macao deepened. We have established a systematic overseas expansion team, firmly committed to using education as a bridge to serve the Belt and Road Initiative.

In the new year, we will use endeavor as our pen and passion as our ink, jointly painting a new chapter in education. Empowering education and teaching with artificial intelligence has been integrated into the development priorities of our member institutions; the construction model for industry colleges continues to innovate; emerging sectors like e-commerce synergize and progress alongside our core educational mission. We are keenly aware that the vitality of private education stems from quality and distinctive features. KEPEI Group will persistently enhance support and services for its member institutions, joining hands with each school to repay the trust of students, parents, and society through high-quality education.

We thank every member of the KEPEI community for your dedication, every student for your trust, and all friends from various social sectors for your long-standing concern and support for KEPEI's development! The road ahead may be rugged, but we firmly believe: only by keeping our feet firmly on the ground can we travel steadily and far; only through openness and collaboration can we build a brighter future together.

We sincerely wish our great motherland prosperity and strength, with peace and prosperity to all!

We sincerely wish everyone good health, smooth work, family well-being, and immediate success in the new year!
