A college to provide training for the Internet games industry has been opened in Beijing.

China's Ministry of Information Technology, the Hong Kong Vocational Training Council, and a Beijing Internet company devised the new college as a joint venture.

The college was established because of the demand for workers by Internet game developers.

In addition, the college has licensed 15 training centers to provide the same Internet game training program across the country.
