Broad incumbents

• EIC Education (启德教育): A leading Chinese study abroad agency offering university application consulting, visa services, and integrated test prep. Overlaps with Global Education's study abroad consulting and IELTS preparation offerings.
• New Channel International Education (新航道): Founded by a former head of Global IELTS, New Channel is the most direct Chinese competitor in IELTS and TOEFL prep with a similar multi-city campus model and curriculum focus.
