  Liuzhou Snail Rice Flour Industry College is jointly established by the government, Liuzhou Vocational and Technical College and industry enterprises. It is planned to open 7 specialties, including green food production and testing (snail rice flour direction), chain management (snail rice flour direction), e-commerce ( Snail powder direction), etc., after graduation, the students will be arranged or recommended to the enterprise for employment after the enterprise assessment.

  In addition, the three parties will jointly develop curriculum standards and training materials, build a teacher team, jointly carry out order classes and modern apprenticeship training, jointly build a technology R & D application center, a practical training base, and a big data technical service center for snail powder, and jointly develop snail powder Cultural construction, etc.

  Liuzhou snail powder as a local specialty snack in Liuzhou has the unique flavor of spicy, refreshing, fresh, sour and hot. In recent years, snail powder, which was only prevalent in Liuzhou roadside stalls, has been exported to home and abroad.

  Liang Xuhui, deputy secretary of the Liuzhou Municipal Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, said that the output value of the snail powder industry in 2015 was about 500 million yuan (RMB, the same below). In 2019, the output value of the whole industry chain of snail powder exceeded 13 billion yuan, of which the output value of bagged snail powder exceeded 6 billion yuan. There are more than 250,000 jobs. At present, the average daily output of Liuzhou snail powder exceeds 2.5 million bags, and the company's orders have increased more than 3 times year-on-year.

  As the scale of the snail powder market continues to expand, there are some problems that need to be resolved. For example, the construction of the brand structure system needs to be improved; the product innovation ability is weak, the high-end talents are lacking; the production automation is low, and the key technologies are relatively backward. Therefore, the snail powder industry needs more technical and technical composite application talents to support the development of Liuzhou snail powder industry.

  Ni Zhouyang, president of Liuzhou Snail Rice Powder Association, said in an interview that the relevant majors offered by Snail Rice Powder Industry College match the talents that are currently in short supply in the Snail Rice Powder Industry. At present, the sales of snail powder are hot. In 2020, the output value of bagged snail powder will exceed 10 billion yuan. When the output value reaches 20 billion or 30 billion, more talents are needed to support it.

  It is understood that in recent years, many colleges and universities in China have established local characteristic industries as the basis, such as Crayfish College, Navel Orange College, and Hot Dry Noodle Research Institute, etc., to train various talents in the industrial chain for the local characteristic economy.
