Like many craftsmen in big countries, nowadays, more and more vocational college graduates stand out and pursue their dreams on a broad stage. High quality economic and social development requires a large number of craftsmen from large countries, but high-quality skilled talents will not emerge out of thin air, and vocational colleges need to provide continuous support. It has become a social consensus to improve the training quality of vocational colleges, give everyone a chance to excel in life, and strive to create an "upgraded version of vocational education".
In recent years, China has actively promoted the high-quality development of vocational education, and made great progress in the construction of teaching staff, the construction of training bases, and the integration of production and education. At present, China has built the world's largest vocational education system. According to the data of the Ministry of Education, by the end of 2023, there were 1547 higher vocational (junior college) schools nationwide, with 5.5507 million students enrolled, an increase of 2.99% over the previous year; There are 7085 secondary vocational education schools (excluding the technical schools managed by the human resources and social security departments), with 4.5404 million students enrolled and 12.9846 million students enrolled.
However, the weakness of vocational education in China still exists, especially the low integration of talent training and industrial development. At present, China is constantly adjusting its industrial structure, and the speed of various technology updates and iterations is also accelerating, which puts forward higher requirements for the adaptability of colleges and universities. The core standard to measure the quality of running a school is whether it can cultivate high-quality skilled talents matching the job responsibilities for employers and take a good connotative development path.
The All China Federation of Trade Unions recently printed and distributed a document, deciding to select about 200 craftsmen from large countries for cultivation in 2024. The cultivation period will be two years. It will demonstrate and guide all regions and industries to actively support the cultivation of about 1000 provincial and ministerial craftsmen, and about 5000 municipal craftsmen, so as to create a large number of craftsmen and high skilled talents from large countries to support China's manufacturing and creation, and drive the construction of a knowledge-based Skilled and innovative industrial workers.
