This meeting is an important meeting held at the critical stage of accelerating the development of modern vocational education and vigorously implementing the second phase plan of vocational education in our city. The main task of the meeting is to implement the important instructions on accelerating the development of vocational education and the spirit of the national and provincial vocational education work conference, sum up the experience of vocational education in our city, further clarify the tasks, strengthen measures, pay close attention to implementation, and strive to push the vocational education work in our city to a new level. The municipal party committee and municipal government attached great importance to this meeting. Before the meeting, Secretary Yu gave important instructions on accelerating the development of vocational education in our city. The municipal government organized the municipal education, human society, finance and other departments to conduct in-depth research, and studied and issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Modern Vocational Education", which is a programmatic document guiding the development of vocational education in our city in the future. Just now, Comrade Yu conveyed the spirit of Secretary Yu's instructions, so we should seriously study and understand them and do a good job in implementing them. At the same time, the Municipal Education Bureau, the People's Social Security Bureau, the Finance Bureau, Biyang County, the Senior Technical School and Runan Kindergarten Teachers made speeches from different angles and levels, which were very good and representative. I hope everyone will learn from them seriously. Below, I would like to emphasize several points on vocational education in our city:
First, attach great importance to the development of vocational education in a more prominent position.
Accelerate the implementation of vocational education in our city? Prospering the city through science and education? And then what? Strong city with talents? Strategy plays a particularly important role in actively undertaking industrial transfer and accelerating the transformation of economic development mode. In recent years, in accordance with the deployment of the provincial party committee and the provincial government to vigorously develop vocational education, we have insisted on giving priority to education, attached great importance to speeding up the development of vocational education, and vigorously implemented the vocational education attack plan and the national skills revitalization project, which has effectively improved the characteristics and level of vocational education at all levels and achieved remarkable results. First, the scale of vocational education continues to expand. At present, there are 20 vocational colleges of all levels and types in the city, including vocational colleges 1, 2 provincial vocational schools, technical colleges 1 and secondary vocational schools 16, with 67,000 students. Second, the conditions for running vocational education have improved significantly. Relevant departments at all levels have continuously increased investment and policy support for vocational education, creating a good environment for the development of vocational education. Especially around improving the basic ability of vocational education, a number of vocational colleges with perfect facilities and good quality have been built. At present, there are 10 training bases supported by the central and provincial governments, 4 provincial brand demonstration colleges, 7 provincial characteristic colleges and 7 provincial vocational education counties. Third, the level of vocational education serving the economy has improved significantly. Through implementation? Sunshine project? 、? Rain and dew plan? , training nearly 6.5438+0.8 million person-times every year, establishing school-enterprise cooperation relations with more than 654.38+0.000 enterprises, and the employment signing rate of graduates is over 95%, which provides strong support for economic and social development. Fourth, the vitality of vocational education has been continuously enhanced. Through regional integration and overall optimization, the construction of vocational education parks has been accelerated. At present, the planned area is 8.8 square kilometers and the investment is 654.38+0.2 billion yuan. Zhumadian Senior Technical School and Runan Kindergarten School have moved in, and the construction of agricultural school, health school and finance school is progressing smoothly, which has better realized multi-school in one district, complementary advantages and resource sharing. Adhere to Huanghuai College as the leader, industry enterprises as the support, majors as the link, support the transformation and development of Huanghuai College, take the road of running schools with characteristics, and establish Yintai Automobile College, the first in the province? Cross-border electronic commerce College? It has embarked on a road of transformation and development of integration of production and education and cooperation between schools and enterprises, and is at the forefront of the country. At the same time, private vocational education has developed well and has become an important part of the vocational education system in our city. Generally speaking, through the joint efforts of the whole city, vocational education in our city has reached a new level, which has become a highlight of economic and social development and made important contributions to improving the quality of workers and promoting industrial optimization and upgrading.
Although the vocational education in our city has achieved phased results, we should also clearly realize that there are still many difficulties and problems in the development of vocational education, which is still the weak link of the whole education system. First, vocational education is not attractive enough, and people's understanding of vocational education is biased. They always think that vocational education is inferior and students' enthusiasm for applying for vocational colleges is not high. Second, the system and mechanism of running vocational schools are not flexible enough, the cooperation between schools and enterprises is a mere formality to a certain extent, and enterprises have not participated in the talent training process of vocational colleges well, especially the number of private colleges is small, the scale of running schools is small, and the development potential has not been fully released. Third, the ability to serve economic and social development is not strong. The professional facilities, teaching contents and teaching methods of some colleges and universities can not meet the market demand well, and they are not closely consistent with the industrial structure and economic development of our city. All these require us to further strengthen measures in our future work and solve them effectively.
Has it been fully completed this year? Twelfth Five-Year Plan? Planned end year. Like the whole country and the whole province, the economic development of our city has entered a new normal, and it is more difficult to stabilize growth, and the position and role of vocational education in economic and social development has become increasingly prominent. We should grasp and expand the advantages of labor resources in our city, vigorously develop vocational education, effectively shift economic growth to the track of relying on scientific and technological progress and improving the quality of workers, and strive to make vocational education make greater contributions to sustained and healthy economic development.
(A) vigorously developing vocational education is an important part of improving the modern national education system. Vocational education is specialized knowledge learning and training aimed at employment requirements and professional characteristics. It is a practical education to cultivate high-quality workers and skilled professionals. It shoulders the important responsibility of cultivating diversified talents, inheriting technical skills and promoting employment. Together with general education, adult education and continuing education, it constitutes a modern national education system. Education is the most closely related to economy and society. The more economic and social development, the more high-quality vocational education is needed. European and American countries are highly developed economically because they have a complete and highly developed vocational education system. As far as the United States is concerned, from the beginning of primary and secondary education, great attention has been paid to the cultivation of students' professional ability, and the scores of high school courses related to practice account for a large proportion in the assessment of entering universities. What is the practice in Germany? Dual track system? Vocational education, about 60% of teenagers choose to accept it every year? Dual track system? In vocational education, students spend half their time studying in vocational schools and half their time practicing in enterprises, and their vocational education qualifications, diplomas and job certificates also have high social recognition and authority. In China, for a long time, education has been based on general education, with the purpose of obtaining diplomas. With the development of economy and society and the progress of the times, people's ideas began to change, paying attention to both academic diplomas and professional occupations, choosing schools and majors suitable for their own development, and paying more and more attention to whether they can get employment and what occupation to choose. In June this year, the State Council held a national conference on vocational education, proposing to speed up the development of vocational education so that everyone can have a chance to shine in life. From the central and provincial levels, the "Decision on Accelerating the Development of Modern Vocational Education" and "Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Modern Vocational Education" were issued, which clarified the thinking and pointed out the direction for vocational education at present and in the future. Therefore, we must attach great importance to modern vocational education and further understand the importance of vocational education from a strategic perspective.
(2) Vigorously developing vocational education is an urgent need to improve the comprehensive competitiveness of our city. Our city is rich in labor resources. To win the initiative in the increasingly fierce competition, the biggest advantage is population advantage, and the most important resource is human resources. Under the new economic normal, it is necessary to speed up the adjustment of economic structure, change the mode of economic growth and achieve steady economic growth, which puts forward new and higher requirements for the structure and quality of human resources. Judging from the current situation, the shortage of skilled workers and the structural shortage of supply and demand are prominent, which has become a bottleneck restricting the stamina of industrial development. Human resources are the key factor to determine the level of industrial development. Without highly skilled talents, it is impossible to achieve industrial optimization and upgrading, and there is no development potential. In a certain sense, grasping vocational education means grasping industrial optimization and upgrading, and grasping industrial competitiveness. We should start from the source, pay more attention to and accelerate the development of vocational education, improve the quality of human resources in an all-round way, further enhance the competitive advantage of our city in opening up investment and undertaking industrial transfer, and continuously enhance its comprehensive competitiveness and sustainable development ability.
(3) Vigorously developing vocational education is a realistic way to promote social employment. Employment is a major event related to people's livelihood and social harmony, and it is also a prominent problem we have been facing for a long time. At present, the contradiction between the total supply and demand of labor force in our city and the structural contradiction of employment coexist at the same time. The increase of urban employment pressure is synchronized with the acceleration of rural labor transfer, and the employment of new labor force and the re-employment of unemployed people are intertwined. This year, we put forward the goal of ensuring the completion of 6.5438+0.8 million vocational skills training, creating 48,000 new jobs in cities and towns and 70,000 new jobs for rural labor. To solve this problem, we must vigorously develop vocational education, improve workers' vocational skills, enhance their employability and entrepreneurial ability, and strive to transform our city's population advantage into human capital advantage.
In a word, vocational education is related to the overall situation and the long-term. Departments at all levels should regard vocational education as an important foundation for enhancing comprehensive competitiveness and sustainable economic and social development, and strive to play a good role in supporting development, safeguarding people's livelihood and promoting harmony? Three functions? . Supporting development is to serve the steady and healthy development of the economy, improve quality and efficiency, take the development of vocational education as an important starting point for changing mode and adjusting structure, and promote the scale, structure, layout and level of vocational education to meet the requirements of economic and social development. Is the protection of people's livelihood oriented to achieving high-quality employment and giving full play to employment? Baton? Pay more attention to the important position of vocational education in talent training and lay the foundation for workers to live a better life. Promoting harmony means promoting fairness and justice, giving full play to the important role of the government in ensuring basic and promoting fairness, strengthening the overall coordination of urban and rural and regional vocational education, accelerating the development of rural vocational education, and striving to make? Unemployment, employment and happiness? .
Second, grasp the key points and further enlarge and strengthen vocational education.
The coming period will be a crucial period for the accelerated development of vocational education at a new starting point. According to the requirements of the central government and the province, our city has issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Modern Vocational Education", which has made comprehensive arrangements for the vocational education in our city in the coming period and should be conscientiously implemented. We should focus on the following aspects:
(A) efforts to promote the innovation of school-running model. To develop modern vocational education, the core and fundamental problem is to deepen reform. First, we must adhere to the employment orientation. Give full play to the role of the market mechanism, adhere to the concept of setting up whatever majors the society needs and cultivating whatever talents the market needs, and accelerate the reform and innovation of teaching mode, management system and school-running mode. Further improve the employment mechanism of graduates, strengthen employment guidance, broaden employment channels, and promote the integration of vocational education with the market. Second, expand foreign exchanges and cooperation. Actively participate in the training organized by the Ministry of Education and the Provincial Department of Education, earnestly learn from the advanced curriculum, training mode, teaching material system and management experience of other places, and strive to cultivate a number of competitive vocational colleges and innovative talents. Third, we must earnestly grasp policy guidance. Governments at all levels and education authorities should focus on reducing their intervention in the specific affairs of schools, focusing more on planning overall development and helping solve problems, so that schools can have more autonomy. Focus on supporting the construction of brand schools and characteristic majors, and further enhance industrial consistency and social recognition by playing a leading role in demonstration.
(2) Focus on developing private vocational education. The development mode of private vocational education is more flexible and closer to the market. The development of private vocational education can mobilize social forces to participate in running schools and meet the educational needs of different levels of society. At present, our city lacks large-scale and well-known private schools. All relevant departments at all levels should take active actions to support the development of private vocational education. First, boldly try the pilot of joint-stock system and mixed ownership system in vocational colleges, allow market participants to participate in running schools with capital, knowledge, technology and management elements, and encourage public vocational colleges to adopt them? Public and private assistance? In other forms, attract enterprises, research institutes, social organizations and individuals to seek common development. Second, earnestly implement the national and provincial policies and measures to support the development of private vocational education, and take the second phase of vocational education project as an opportunity to give tilt and support to those private vocational schools with large scale, standardized management, good social benefits and high public recognition, and support the development of a number of private vocational schools. The third is to support well-known vocational education institutions inside and outside the province to cooperate in running schools in our city, inject vitality into the vocational education market in our city, and continuously improve the attractiveness and service of vocational education. Fourth, strengthen the guidance and management of private higher vocational colleges according to law. Those training institutions that are mercenary and publish false information to defraud consumers will be severely punished according to law, earnestly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the masses, and guide private schools to run schools according to law and develop healthily.
(3) Focus on promoting the integration of production and education. Vocational education can't be closed. Only by taking the road of school-enterprise cooperation and integration of production and education can it develop better and better. The Third Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee clearly pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the construction of a modern vocational education system, deepen the integration of production and education, school-enterprise cooperation, and cultivate high-quality workers and skilled talents. The Ministry of Education is planning reform measures to guide the transformation and development of a number of local universities and build ten application-oriented demonstration universities throughout the country. On April 25th, the Ministry of Education held the first international forum on the development strategy of the integration of production and education in our city, and issued the Zhumadian Consensus, with the integration of production and education as the theme, exploring the road of Universities of Applied Sciences's construction. 165438+1October 14. The first school-enterprise cooperation fair was held in our city. More than 100 enterprises had face-to-face communication with various vocational colleges and signed 54 school-enterprise cooperation projects. It is necessary to seize the historical opportunity of the country to vigorously develop vocational education, vigorously promote the deep integration between schools and enterprises, and establish? Government, industry, enterprises, schools and students? Five-in-one cooperation mechanism, leading enterprises into schools, running schools into factories, taking enterprises as classrooms, turning schools into R&D bases and talent training bases for enterprises, realizing resource sharing between schools and enterprises, mutual benefit and win-win, and building Zhumadian into a strong city of vocational education.
(four) focus on the implementation of national skills revitalization project. Are you online? Six roads go hand in hand? On the basis of, take more effective measures to promote the docking of skills training and industrial needs, and further enhance the pertinence and effectiveness of training. First, we should carry out targeted training. Focusing on the demand for skilled talents for undertaking industrial transfer and economic restructuring, we will actively guide vocational colleges to carry out order training and directional training focusing on cultivating urgently needed skilled talents. We should strengthen the use and management of matching funds. For institutions that have not cooperated with enterprises or received orders from enterprises, training indicators are not allocated and training funds are not allocated. Second, improve the training methods and contents. The traditional theory on the blackboard and the training mode maintained in books have fallen behind. It is necessary to encourage and guide all kinds of training institutions to comprehensively improve the training methods and contents and implement them. Work-study combination, school-enterprise cooperation internship? A new method based on. Schools should take the initiative to carry out all-round and multi-level cooperation with enterprises, go out of school, practice in workshops, and exercise in the main battlefield of economic construction to realize the integration of teaching and practice, practice and production. Third, we should integrate and make good use of training resources. Actively integrate the training resources of human society, education, civil affairs, agriculture, poverty alleviation, disabled persons' federations and other departments, bundle and package them to realize information sharing; It is necessary to carry out training according to the needs of enterprises and vigorously cultivate practical and technical talents; Further strengthen supervision and management, and will never be soft on the behavior of taking training funds.
(5) Focus on building a modern vocational education system. Relevant departments at all levels should further optimize the layout of vocational colleges, rely on the construction of application-oriented undergraduate colleges and municipal vocational education parks, and build a modern vocational education system with Huanghuai College as the leader, vocational and technical colleges as the bridge, vocational schools as the support, and employment as the orientation. First, adjust and optimize the structure of vocational education. Since 20 10, the city has implemented the layout adjustment plan of vocational schools, and has adjusted 59 vocational colleges in the city to 20 now. In June this year, the provincial government proposed to further strengthen the adjustment of the layout of vocational colleges, and strive to adjust the number of secondary vocational schools and higher vocational colleges in the province from the current 900 to about 500 by 20 18, focusing on supporting the construction of 100 brand demonstration colleges and 200 characteristic colleges. We should seize this great opportunity. Education and industry, school and enterprise, specialty and post docking? Principles of guiding schools to optimize specialty layout, cultivate brand specialties, strengthen characteristic specialties, support emerging specialties, transform traditional specialties, stop the specialties with poor employment and build them? Reasonable layout, optimized resources, professional counterparts and unique features? Vocational education system. The second is to speed up the construction of municipal vocational education parks. In order to create new advantages in human resources, the municipal party committee and municipal government plan to build a vocational education park with an area of 8.8 square kilometers, with an investment of 2 1 100 million yuan in infrastructure construction. Upon completion, it can accommodate 10 vocational schools and become a new education city with a population of 200,000, which will play an important role in broadening the urban framework, upgrading the urban taste and realizing the integrated development of production and city. At present, senior technical school and Runan Teachers College have moved in, while agricultural school, health school and finance school are under intense construction. Construction parties and schools under construction should further enhance their sense of responsibility and urgency, reverse the construction period and cross-work, and speed up the construction of school projects, mass resettlement houses, teachers' apartments and municipal supporting facilities. Relevant departments should cooperate closely, provide good services, solve the difficulties and problems encountered in the construction of the park, and ensure that all work is implemented. Third, promote the development of county vocational education. County-level vocational education is an important part of the city's vocational education, which accounts for both the training scale and the training ability. Half the country? Zhengyang and Biyang vocational schools have been recognized as national model schools for reform and development, which is inseparable from the attention and support of the local government. Biyang county has just made a typical speech, hoping to inspire everyone. Accelerate the reform and development of county vocational education, and improve the network of vocational education and adult education and training at all levels. Vocational schools at the city and county levels should further strengthen exchanges and cooperation, take the city as an area, help the weak and help the strong, and form a good situation of mutual promotion and common development. Fourth, we should strengthen the construction of training bases. Training base is the basic guarantee for cultivating students' operational ability, improving teaching quality and highlighting school-running characteristics. All counties, districts and relevant departments should speed up the formulation of standards for the construction of comprehensive training bases and productive training bases around the construction of brand demonstration majors and characteristic majors, and strive to build about 10 provincial demonstration training bases through 3-5 years' efforts. Schools should gradually expand the proportion of practical training in teaching and make up for the shortage of practical training as soon as possible. Fifth, we should strengthen it? Double-qualified? Construction of teaching staff. Relevant departments at all levels should make great efforts in the introduction, training and employment of teachers, and support vocational colleges to hire high-skilled talents and skilled craftsmen as part-time teachers for enterprises and society. Schools should further strengthen the management of teaching staff, send teachers to enterprises for practical training in a planned way, and strive to build a teaching staff with reasonable structure, excellent quality and a combination of full-time and part-time work? Double-qualified? Teaching staff.
Third, gather strength to create favorable conditions for the development of vocational education
Developing modern vocational education is a systematic project, which involves a wide range and is difficult to work. All levels and departments should attach great importance to it and take various measures at the same time. Taking the opportunity of in-depth implementation of the second phase of vocational education project, we will further intensify our work and implement various measures to promote the development of vocational education.
(1) Further strengthen organizational leadership. County and district governments should earnestly fulfill the main responsibility of developing vocational education, put accelerating the development of modern vocational education in a more prominent position, and take out capable forces to run vocational education well. The main responsible comrades in counties and districts are the first responsible persons for developing modern vocational education. We should personally take the overall responsibility, earnestly perform the duties of the master and the responsible person, and study and solve major problems in the development of vocational education in time. Education, development and reform, people's society, land and other departments should carry out their duties, work together, use policy means, make overall planning, coordination and guidance, and earnestly achieve ideological understanding, organization and leadership, and work measures in place.
(2) It is necessary to further increase policy support. The municipal government issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Modern Vocational Education" and put forward relevant policies to promote the development of vocational education in the coming period. All localities and departments should formulate supporting measures in light of the actual situation and increase their support for vocational education. It is necessary to strictly implement the preferential policies for the second phase of the provincial vocational education project to ensure that they are put in place and receive practical results. It is necessary to improve the financial input mechanism that is compatible with the scale of running a school and the training requirements, and gradually raise the per capita funding standard of vocational colleges. The proportion of occupation education surcharge and local education surcharge shall not be less than 30%. For public vocational colleges? Make up for the change? For private and enterprise-run vocational colleges? For prizes? Focus on supporting vocational schools with professional settings that meet market demand, high teaching quality and high employment rate. It is necessary to increase funding for poor students, disabled people and other special groups, and strive to make every student not drop out of school because of family financial difficulties. From the fall semester of 20 15, all full-time students in secondary vocational schools are exempt from tuition fees. Relevant departments and schools should be strict in financial discipline, strengthen fund management, and ensure the standardized and effective use of subsidy funds.
(3) To further increase publicity. The development of vocational education can not be separated from the extensive understanding and active participation of all sectors of society, and can not be separated from the general recognition of families and students. We should make full use of radio, television, newspapers, internet and other media to publicize the important position and role of vocational education? Do you want to be a champion? Talent concept and advanced deeds of outstanding skilled talents, continue to carry out vocational education activity week and vocational skills competition, commend and reward advanced units and individuals in vocational education, and give full play to the leading role of demonstration. Should be vigorously promoted? Glorious labor, valuable skills, great creation? We should actively advocate the social fashion of respecting talents, technology, labor and creation, and strive to create a good atmosphere for the whole society to care for and support the development of vocational education.
Comrades, it is a glorious and arduous task to vigorously develop vocational education in our city. Guided by the spirit of the Party and the spirit of the Third and Fourth Plenary Sessions of the 18th CPC Central Committee, let's fully implement the spirit of the third national vocational education conference in the State Council and the provincial vocational education work conference, further unify our thinking, forge ahead, work hard, and strive to create a new situation in vocational education in our city in the new era, so as to provide a solid guarantee for enriching the people and strengthening the city and accelerating its rise.
