 we recruit, or identify from within TCTM, instructors with the appropriate industry and academic background to form a course-specific development task team. The development of our STEM education program courses is mostly programming centered. In addition, we focus on leveraging our experience in IT courses, especially programming courses, to develop coding- and programming-based courses for our STEM education programs.

All of our new courses are pilot tested in selected learning centers for student satisfaction assessment and feedback collection. We adjust and calibrate the contents and instruction methods as for these new course based on the feedbacks collected and do not launch the respective new course on a national level until we achieve a 100% student satisfaction rate in the pilot tests. In 2020, we launched a Creative Programming Starter course. In 2021, we launched robotics programming courses including SPIKE Starter and SPIKE Advanced, which have gained popularity among our students aged between six and twelve. In 2022, we launched the Python Programming Basics, which is an upgraded version of Python Artificial Intelligence and has gained popularity among our students aged between eight and ten. In 2023, we upgraded the NOI Informatics Olympiad and Creative Programming Starter courses to stay abreast of the technology changes and satisfy the evolving preferences of students and/or their parents. In 2024, we updated our Python courses and introduced advanced - tier Python courses.
Our software research and development department is tasked with improving the technical performance and user experience of 61it.cn.
Our Students
Our student enrollment in STEM education programs reached approximately 140,000 in 2024. The majority of our students of our STEM education courses are students aged between three and eighteen.
Student recruitment
We primarily rely on the on-site marketing based on our offline learning centers to attract students and their parents for enrollment growth. We also adopted such customer acquisition channels to grasp massive customer base with relatively lower costing.
When a prospective student responds to our advertisements, an enrollment advisor generates a prospective student profile and advises the candidate, through online, telephone or a face-to-face meeting, on various aspects of our courses and educational experience. Besides, our excellent course and delivery quality and our students’ learning results in IT-focused supplementary STEM education have translated into word-of-mouth referrals and an increase in the number of renewal students as a percentage of fee-paying students, partially offsetting the decrease in customer acquisition due to limited center access.
Tuition Fees
For our STEM education programs, our standard tuition fees are between RMB8,000 and RMB23,400. Courses
