　　Statistics show that secondary and higher vocational schools (excluding technical schools) have trained more than 79 million graduates in ten years, providing more than 70% of new employees for modern manufacturing, strategic emerging industries and modern service industries.

However, many vocational colleges have recently encountered the embarrassment of a sluggish number of applicants.

How to make vocational education "popular and popular"?

During the two sessions of the country, many deputies to the National People's Congress gave a good solution to the problem.

　　Yang Jinlong, a representative of the National People's Congress and a teacher of Hangzhou Technician College, is a representative of the "post-90s". In recent years, his suggestions for performance of duties have always focused on vocational education.

　　In an interview with a reporter from China News Agency, Yang Jinlong said that from the implementation of the newly revised Vocational Education Law to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, many relevant keywords were put forward; Annual government work report.

A series of "top-level designs" at the national level have pointed out the direction for the development of vocational education, "demonstrating determination and strength."

　　The representatives interviewed believed that, in addition to favorable policies, how to break people's stereotypes of vocational education is a key.

"Applying for vocational colleges is still a "helpless move" and a "dead end choice" for candidates to a certain extent. There is still a long way to go to allow more people to choose vocational education." National People's Congress Representative, Dezhou Hengfeng Group High-skilled Coach Wang Xiaofei said.

　　She believes that important festivals such as "May 1st" International Labor Day and Teacher's Day can be used to increase the promotion of vocational education, so that craftsmen and skilled craftsmen from big countries can become idols in people's hearts, and a skill culture that respects skills and advocates practice can be formed in the whole society , so that more people are willing to actively choose vocational colleges.

　　"At the level of family education, more parents should also be guided to realize that the purpose of vocational education is not only to provide human resources for economic and social development, but also to help everyone explore their interests and potentials and enjoy a wonderful life." Wang Xiaofei said that this year she proposed One of the suggestions is to further promote the implementation of the Family Education Promotion Law at the grassroots level.

　　In order to further reverse the social prejudice against vocational education, it is necessary to improve the employment quality of vocational school students, and the improvement of employment quality is inseparable from the integration of production and education.

　　Yang Jinlong said that different regions have different endowment elements, resulting in different industrial structures, which in turn require technical talents of different types.

It is necessary to promote the professional construction and enrollment of vocational education colleges in various places to closely connect with local industries, "in this way, we can better meet market demand and improve the quality of employment of talents."

　　In the integration of production and education, it has always been the focus of attention to promote vocational education to form a multi-governance pattern that is jointly promoted by government, school, enterprise and business.

Hu Dongfang, a representative of the National People's Congress, a senior mold designer and senior engineer of Zhejiang Chentai Technology Co., Ltd., believes that the school can absorb the advantages of the German "dual system" teaching model in teaching design, and build workshops in schools and classrooms in workshops , Students can also enter the enterprise for internship in advance, and the school and enterprise can also jointly build a high-quality teaching staff to realize the integration of the education chain and the industry chain.

　　There are advantages for further studies and development channels, which are also long-term problems that need to be solved to boost the confidence of students and parents in vocational education.

　　Wang Xiaofei suggested that vocational colleges should change from "employment-oriented" to "employment and further education".

On the basis of ensuring the quality of students' technical skills training, secondary vocational schools should also strengthen basic cultural education, promote the teaching input of ideology, politics, Chinese, and history, and cultivate students' comprehensive quality.

　　Talking about higher vocational education, Hu Dongfang said that currently students can only choose between higher vocational education and general higher education, which is not conducive to the comprehensive and sustainable development of people. It is suggested to accelerate the mutual equivalence and integration of the two.

　　"Students in higher vocational education should also be able to study in higher education schools through examinations or mutual recognition of credits, so as to break through the 'wall', so as to smooth the channels for all kinds of skilled talents to improve their education and skills." Hu Dongfang said, thus Form a talent development path with vertical ladders and horizontal connections.

　　It is also an indispensable link in the chain of people's confidence in vocational education that skilled talents go to work, broaden the space for promotion and development, and open up the "overpass" for talent growth.

　　Wang Xiaofei said that the remuneration system should be improved, the concept of "academic-only theory" should be broken, and a professional title promotion system for skilled talents should be established. For talents with outstanding professional and technical capabilities, strong innovation capabilities, and achievements in transformation, they can be exceptionally promoted in terms of professional title evaluation.

　　"Nowadays, all kinds of skill competitions are also the 'stage' for climbing to new heights. Skilled workers can definitely become craftsmen of a big country through hard work." Hu Dongfang said.
