A total of 220 universities nationwide became member units, and 44 universities became standing member units, with the School of Economics and Management at Southeast University being elected as a standing member unit.


Each standing member unit will form several groups based on courses, which are responsible for the case teaching construction of that course, including setting up cross-school "virtual teaching and research labs", formulating "case collection and editing guidelines," organizing course teacher training nationwide, and building professional industry-education integration bases.
