Before applying for the qualification of running a school, first determine whether the nature of the training school is profit-making or non-profit. If it is a for-profit organization, it needs to go to the Education Bureau for examination and approval of the school license and the Industrial and Commercial Bureau for examination and approval of the business license; If it is a non-profit organization, it needs to go to the Education Bureau to examine and approve the school license, and the Civil Affairs Bureau to examine and approve private non-enterprises.
The license for running a school is the proof that a private training school has obtained the qualification for running a school. All private training schools should strictly abide by the provisions of the Law on the Promotion of Private Education in People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Regulations on the Implementation of the Law on the Promotion of Private Education in People's Republic of China (PRC), and run schools in accordance with the address, level, content and form indicated in the school license.

If it passes the examination, a school license shall be issued; If it fails to pass the examination and approval, it will inform the reason in writing. The whole journey is expected to take 3-6 months.
