He Guoqiang, a member of the  Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party  of China (CPC), met here Tuesday with Walter Fust, head of the  Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), and his party.

The SDC has operated a training program with the China Training Center for Senior Personnel Management Officials (CTCSPMO) since  1993, and has trained more than 500 Chinese officials to date.

He, also a member of the Secretariat and head of the  Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, praised the  training program, saying it had become an important part of the  two governments' cooperation.

The CTCSPMO and the SDC signed an agreement to start the third  phase of training, which will allow nearly 600 Chinese officials  to research and train in Europe.
