"Crayfish Professional" is popular. Recently, the first batch of students from Hubei Hanjiang Art Vocational College of Crayfish were booked out before graduation, with an average monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan. Are you surprised or not? Amazing?
Against the backdrop of this year's government work report focusing on vocational education with great focus, this incident attracts more attention and confirms people the bright prospects that vocational education may bring.
However, whether it is the expansion of enrollment of higher vocational colleges by 1 million or the significant increase in investment in the development of vocational education in the central government, for families with candidates, they still cannot let go of their doubts and prejudice.
However, after completing the following questions, your ideas may change.
No more words, please listen to the question.
In recent years, there have been cases in the news media that the admission score for higher vocational colleges exceeds the second-tier university.
For example, in 2015, the admission scores of Shenzhen Vocational and Technical College in Guangdong Province outside Shenzhen all exceeded the second-tier line in this area.
Among the higher vocational colleges participating in the filing in Shandong Province, the minimum scores of 14 science and 18 liberal arts colleges exceed the second-tier line; some higher vocational colleges in Henan, Hunan, Hubei and other places exceed the second-tier line.
In 2018, the admissions director of Nanjing Vocational and Technical College also said, "Our annual admission score line is higher than that of the second-tier university."
From the perspective of student sources, vocational education is no longer a passive choice simply arranged according to scores, and there are more active choices.
Someone considers employment. Last year, the media reported that Xi Guosheng, a graduate of Xianning High School in Hubei, had a college entrance examination score of only 4 points away from the first-tier line. Because he saw the employment opportunities brought by the development of high-speed rail, he chose to apply for the Wuhan Railway Vocational and Technical College Railway Locomotive major.
There are also people who come because of their favorite major. Hubei Light Industry Vocational and Technical College Beer Brewing Student Mei Xinyi is the same. She scored 18 points in the second-tier line in the college entrance examination. She dreamed of becoming a beer brewer because of her dream of becoming a brewing school. She only considered a school with a brewing major and finally realized her dream in a higher vocational school. She had a clear plan for herself, entered the Sino-German cooperation class, learned German, and went to Germany to exchange and study.
From the perspective of school quality, in recent years, the Ministry of Education has implemented major projects such as the construction of demonstration secondary and higher vocational schools, the modern vocational education quality improvement plan, and the industry-education integration project.
During this year's Two Sessions, Minister of Finance Liu Kun said in response to reporters' questions that the central government plans to allocate 23.7 billion yuan of special funds for the modern vocational education quality improvement plan this year, an increase of 26.6% year-on-year.
With these measures, I believe that the environment and quality of vocational education will be further improved.
Once upon a time, vocational education was regarded as a "dead-end road". Once it entered the vocational education track, it meant that it was not a chance to be with the university. But now things have changed.
In February this year, the State Council issued the "National Vocational Education Reform Implementation Plan", which clearly proposed to "open up channels for the growth of technical and skilled talents."
specifically includes: integrated training of secondary and higher vocational education; establishing a vocational education college entrance examination system, improving the "cultural quality + vocational skills" examination and enrollment methods, providing students with a variety of admission methods and learning methods for higher vocational education; carrying out undergraduate-level vocational education pilots, strengthening the training of professional degree master's students, etc.
In practice, various places have taken action.
Guangdong: Last year, it issued the three-year action plan for "expanding capacity, improving quality, and strengthening services" in vocational education in Guangdong Province (2019-2021), and proposed to expand the pilot scale of collaborative education for higher vocational colleges and undergraduate colleges and universities. By 2021, the number of graduates from higher vocational colleges and universities will double compared with 2018, and the proportion of graduates from secondary vocational schools will be more than 30%.
Beijing: Beijing proposes to build a talent training system that connects "secondary vocational college-higher vocational college-applied undergraduate-professional master" and formulates an integrated talent training plan. "Further expand the scale of the "secondary vocational and higher vocational" integrated training, expand the scale of the "higher vocational and applied undergraduate" integrated training and the "secondary vocational and higher vocational and higher vocational and undergraduate" integrated training."
Zhejiang: In May 2018, Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education Notice on the pilot work of integrating training of secondary vocational and applied undergraduates proposed to carry out pilot work of integrated talent training of secondary vocational and applied undergraduate colleges. Implement rigid plan management and include it in the annual enrollment plan of secondary vocational schools and undergraduate colleges. Secondary vocational enrollment is included in the unified middle school entrance examinations of each city, enrollment is planned, and admission is selected from high to low based on local high school entrance examination results and application application. Three years later, the undergraduate degree will be promoted to participate in the provincial unified examination of secondary vocational education "cultural quality + vocational skills" and can only be admitted online.
In fact, not only the way to go to school is opened in . At the end of employment, it is also being opened.
" The Implementation Plan for the Reform of Vocational Education proposed to support technical and skilled talents to improve their benefits based on skills, and encourage enterprise job promotion and salary distribution to tilt towards key positions, front-line production positions and urgently needed high-level and high-skilled talents.
last year issued a document that high-skilled talents in the engineering field participated in the professional title evaluation, and the professional titles of technicians and engineers can be connected. This policy means that the workplace ceiling of skilled talents has begun to be broken.
Go to vocational schools and learn skills. This understanding is correct. However, this does not mean that you can only do one job after spending three or four years.
conducted a survey on enterprises and found that secondary vocational students that corporate employers value the most Among professional qualities, the top five are job adaptation and frustration resistance, information processing and learning ability, language expression and communication ability, hands-on operation and practice ability, creative thinking and judgment ability.
The ideal growth path for technical and skilled talents is to be highly integrated with industry and education, start from the grassroots level, receive education based on insufficient education, and return to the job, vocational education should accompany it all the time. The "National Vocational Education Reform Implementation Plan" has released such a signal.
According to the plan, my country will launch a pilot program of the 1+X certificate system this year. Students in vocational colleges are encouraged to actively obtain multiple types of vocational skills level certificates while obtaining academic certificates, expand employment and entrepreneurship skills, and alleviate structural employment contradictions.
At the same time, accelerate the construction of the national "credit bank" of vocational education, from 2019 Starting from the beginning, we explore the establishment of a personal learning account for vocational education to achieve traceability, queryability and convertibility of learning results. Orderly carry out the recognition, accumulation and conversion of learning results reflected in academic certificates and vocational skill level certificates, and broaden the channel for the continuous growth of technical and skilled talents.
Vocational Education, Outstanding Life
At this Two Sessions, you can see some destiny changed by skills and the outstanding life won.
"post-90s" National People's Congress representative Zou Bin : A great country craftsman is a young man
In 2015, Zou Bin went to Brazil to participate in the 43rd World Skills Competition and won the winning award in the masonry project, achieving a zero breakthrough in China in this project.
This year, Zou Bin put forward policy suggestions on employment skills training for the new generation of migrant workers. He suggested introducing more measures to strengthen institutional construction and improving the coverage and long-term effectiveness of the new generation of migrant workers participating in employment and entrepreneurship skills training. For this reason, he sacrificed a lot of rest time and went deep into the construction site and factories for research.
Yang Jinlong : Cultivating more skilled talents is what I want to do
National People's Congress representative and Hangzhou Technician College Automotive Plastic Surgery and Painting Teacher Yang Jinlong, after graduating from Hangzhou Technician College, in 2015, he represented China in Brazil to participate in the 43rd World Skills Competition, won the gold medal in the automobile painting project, filling the domestic award gap in this field.
After returning to China, many companies sent him invitations, but what he accepted was the Zhejiang Province "No. 0001" special technician certificate. "Many people say I am stupid and don't want to make money because I am a hard and tiring teacher, but I know that cultivating more professional and skilled talents is what I want to do," said representative Yang Jinlong.
Chai Shanshan: The courier who sent herself to the Great Hall of the People
National People's Congress representative Chai Shanshan is an ordinary email sender in the postal system.In 2004, he graduated from a technical secondary school and came to Shanghai alone from Laohekou City, Hubei Province. He entered the postal system and became a mail transporter carrying packages. In Shanghai Post's "Business Skills Training", Chai Shanshan ranked first in the pentathlon, won the advanced worker, and an outstanding young commando in Shanghai... grew from a migrant worker to a business expert and a young backbone. He said that around 2009, not only the delivery staff, but some management positions in the company began to be opened to more people, and household registration, education, etc. are no longer hard indicators. Migrant workers with household registration in other places like him can also get job opportunities and work rewards equally like everyone else. One year ago, the young Chai Shanshan was elected as a member of the National People's Congress.
"Let more young people realize their life value with their skills, and let the 360 teams of talents gather and shine with stars." This sentence in the 2019 Government Work Report is exciting.
I believe that in the near future, more and more "crawfish majors" will become popular, and vocational education will become a type of education, and every child receiving vocational education will have a brilliant life.
