CIBT Adds New Campus in Beijing

October 15, 2002

CIBT Canadian Institute of Business & Technology Corp (“CIBT”), a subsidiary of Capital Alliance Group Inc (TSX-V:CPT), today reported the opening of a new 107,000 square foot training complex in Beijing, comprising approximately 40,000 square feet of teaching and administrative space.

Within the new training complex are 20 modern classrooms, multiple computer labs and a 2,000 square foot lecture hall. Fully utilized, the facility can accommodate up to 2,400 students. Fully secured with fences, guards, a private entrance and parking lot, the building is also equipped with a basketball court, dormitory and dining areas.

With this new facility, CIBT strengthens its position as one of the largest foreign owned and operated business schools in Beijing today, measured by facilities and enrollment. CIBT continues to operate at two other existing locations totaling 25,000 square feet. Photos of the new complex can be seen at the corporate web site: www.CIBTCorp.com/ir/campus.html

This latest development is exciting for us because it positions us to increase our enrollments, unconstrained by availability of space,” said Toby Chu, CEO of CIBT. “The expansion to this modern new complex allows us to offer a broad range of programs to a larger number of students and utilize latest technology and equipment.”
