C.C.E.S. is capable of placing you with other schools at various locations around China as well. In 2010 my wife and I were placed by C.C.E.S. at one of their own training centres in Zhuhai and we have become extremely dissatisfied with the level of unprofessionalism that we have encountered. Our contract has not been honored and the school seems fully incapable of communicating effectively with us. When we arrived we discovered that we were brought in to replace 3 other teachers who had left in the middle of the night without telling the school because they were so infuriated with the schools antics. My wife and I were lied to about the age range we would be teaching; I had requested to teach adults, which they agreed to, and they placed me teaching 2 to 6 year olds in Kindergarten (without providing adequate training to me). Additionally, we had friends who were placed by C.C.E.S. at a university in Hefei who encountered serious issues regarding their contracts. The contracts they signed did not match the contracts that the school signed, so our friends how to renegotiate and sign new contracts there (fortunately for them, they successfully did this). My wife have since been forced to find alternative means of employment in our city because the school will not work out for us. I strongly, strongly recommend that no one use this organization. In our experience, and the experience of others we've talked to who have worked with this organization, they are fully unqualified.
