  If the new vocational education is a runway, then there are not only new career practitioners running on this runway, but also vocational education colleges, institutions, and even the industries behind the new career.

Only by relying on the support of policies and capital, promoting the integration of industry and education, the integration of work and learning, and exploring a new vocational education model with multi-party coordination of "government, school, enterprise, and society", can this runway lead to a farther place.

  "E-sports shouldn’t be just a minority’s competition, just like the new vocational education should not be just a minority’s education!" In the view of Huang Defu, the founder of Tiger Jian E-sports in Xiamen, Fujian, new vocational education including e-sports It has the same quality as compulsory education.

He believes that the quality of new vocational education is reflected in: a complete teaching system, scientific education evaluation standards, and teaching results that can be transformed into actual vocational industries.

  However, he is also very clear in his heart that e-sports education, like many new vocational educations, is a new thing born in response to market demand. It was once regarded as an existence that "does not work properly". The new vocational education must reach his ideal Quality still has a long way to go.

Huang Defu said: "If the new vocational education is to help more people reach far away, it must use the power of policy and capital to pave the way for vocational education further."

The profession is new, and the education system is also very "immature"

  "During my days as a grid operator, I dreamed of transmitting data." Lin Feng (a pseudonym), who has been a grid operator in Gulou District, Fuzhou City, walked for more than 5 hours a day to collect the security in the grid. , Fire protection, garbage classification, etc., and complete information reporting and verification through mobile phone grid terminals.

This work is done in two shifts a day, with two days off and one day off, and the annual income can reach 75,000 yuan.

In the eyes of many of Lin Feng's friends, this is regarded as a beautiful job with a low job intensity but stable income.

  "At first I thought this job was good, but after working day after day, people will eventually get tired." Lin Feng, who is less than 43 years old this year, used to work as an electrician and still has an intermediate electrician certificate.

He missed the days when he went to the construction site with his master every day during the day, and rode his bike to the evening school 3 kilometers away from home to learn electrician courses at night.

He smiled and said, "At that time, for this electrician certificate, I broke a bicycle." When he was 40 years old, because of an accident that caused a hand injury, Lin Feng had to change careers and found the gridman. work.

  This year, when he learned that urban management grid members had been included in the nine new professions released by the state to the society, he sighed, "I have finally gotten his job right," while eager to write a resignation letter to the community.

The reason for his resignation was that qualifications were required for the job, and he searched for relevant units, but he did not find a training institution that could obtain the professional title or technical level of grid personnel.

  He admitted that the lack of space for professional development has become the reason why more and more people, including him, are leaving the "grid".

This year, Lin Feng’s community has 3 grid members who applied for resignation, and there are only 3 grid members in this community.

  Many new professions have no teachers and textbooks because of the theoretical system and unsound faculty. Even if some vocational education institutions offer courses, the new career development path is unclear and the vocational level identification cannot be determined. , It can only provide induction training and basic training for entry skills.

  According to Chen Jinsong, director of the Vocational Education and Adult Education Division of the Education Department of Fujian Province, the formation of majors and the establishment of disciplines are a complicated process that cannot be accomplished overnight.

With the development of new professions and new business formats, professions will have a more refined division of labor, and the new vocational education system will grow with the profession itself.

He said: "The new vocational education must go long-term, not only to help practitioners from'can't do' to'can do', but also to expand the space for education to help more people from'can do' to' well done'."

Let policies empower capital and integrate industry and education

  "Entertainment is different on peace day. Students majoring in e-sports play games with a'purpose.'" According to the commentator of the Tiger Sword e-sports contract and the professional e-sports lecturer Yang Ziqin, Tiger Sword Education and Sanming Medical College Technology Vocational College jointly opened The e-sports sports and management major has been recruiting students for 3 consecutive years, and the first batch of 40 graduates will join the team and enter the professional e-sports industry.

And she herself became a part-time teacher from an e-sports anchor in this school-enterprise cooperation education project.

  In Yang Ziqin’s view, with the development of the industry, the skills that e-sports practitioners need to master are no longer just "playing games" itself. The seemingly simple word "e-sports" covers the entire industry chain and is part of many disciplines. Complex".

In this training base, from time to time, you can see professional e-sports players who have joined the team "returning to the furnace" training.

  In the classroom, Yang Ziqin often brings practical cases to the students. 100% of these cases come from the actual combat experience of the corporate team; outside the classroom, the students will also obtain practical opportunities to participate in the planning and on-site execution of e-sports events through the corporate platform. These practical projects both originate from the enterprise and serve the development of the enterprise.

In the past three years, from teaching materials for e-sports to teachers to classrooms, Tiger Sword Education has helped the college establish e-sports laboratory, immersive experience hall and even a complete discipline system from scratch.

"Without a company, there will be no new professions, and without a company, there will be no new vocational education." The person in charge of the college told reporters, "In the field of new vocational education, companies have more abundant teaching resources than colleges and universities. We are more than ever before. It is even more necessary to promote school-enterprise integration from the policy level."

  Recently, "promoting the high-quality development of the integration of production and education in vocational education" has also been included in the documents issued by the Fujian Provincial Government.

According to the New Deal, Fujian will promote the simultaneous planning and advancement of vocational education development and regional industrial development, and more than 80% of newly-built vocational colleges will be built in industrial parks and industrial parks.

For recognized provincial-level enterprises that integrate production and education, a combined incentive policy of finance, finance, land, and credit will be given.

Pilot enterprises that set up new vocational education can also credit 30% of the investment amount for the current year’s education surcharges and local education surcharges.

  Huang Defu lamented: "The new vocational education has a weak subject foundation, large investment scale, and a long effective cycle. Only by enabling policies to empower capital can the new vocational education integrating industry and education and combining work and learning achieve longer-term development."

Together, it will be better

  In the industry, Lin Zhili, a 32-year-old drone pilot, is called "Old Forest" by many people.

In 2015, he gave up the "establishment", resigned from a public institution in Quanzhou, and obtained the qualification certificate for unmanned aircraft system operator.

Since then, he has become the first batch of "professional pilots" in Fujian with a certificate.

  Lin Zhili told reporters that he used a drone to fly into the mountains late at night for 3 consecutive nights, and used a thermal imaging camera to assist criminal police in searching for fugitives. He also appeared at the scene of a major accident and used aerial photography to cooperate with the fire emergency department to complete the 3D modeling and modeling of the accident scene. Live analysis.

  In 2016, his name appeared in the list of guest lecturers in the drone operator training course launched by the Fujian UAV Association and Xiamen Nanyang College.

In Fujian, the number of drones has exceeded 30,000, and there are about 3,200 professional pilots like Lin Zhili, but less than one-third of the total number of professional pilots with licenses, and flexible employment personnel account for this group. More than half.

  "Industry associations are the link between talents and enterprises, new vocational education and industry." According to Ding Jieqin, secretary general of the Education Committee of the Fujian Drone Association, new professional practitioners have changed the traditional enterprise-based employment model and freelance Employers and flexible employees account for a greater proportion of the new occupational groups.

In her view, the traditional enterprise-based, large-scale vocational education model is difficult to cope with the employment patterns of new vocational workers and the inherent demand for upgrading their skills.

  "Together will be better!" Dong Chuanyi, executive director of the Emergency Management Research Center of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, believes that it is necessary to explore a new vocational education model of "government, school, enterprise, and meeting" multi-party coordination, and integrate more resources and strengths. Let the new vocational education go longer and farther.
