Significant Enhancement of Four Core Competencies

Rooted in the promotion of excellent Chinese cultural education, the Shin Tak Foundation successfully launched the "Shin Tak Tea Culture Inheritance and Innovation Program" in 2023 and 2024. Through 8 on-campus courses, students learn tea-related customs such as receiving guests with tea and respecting elders first. Leveraging Chinese tea studies, the program promotes the national essence and inherits traditional virtues.
Furthermore, we held the "International Tea Day Tea Culture Carnival" at the AsiaWorld-Expo for the first time. Students who had participated in the tea culture courses were able to apply their knowledge practically—personally demonstrating tea table arrangements and tea-making skills on-site, which strengthened their communication capabilities on both social and international cultural stages.
