The school attaches great importance to the subtle influence of the environment on people, and spends money to improve the campus environment, making the once rocky beach a "garden-style school" today. Looking through the shade, a unique design of teaching buildings, office buildings and student apartments came into view. The campus covers an area of 53,000 square meters with a building area of more than 30,000 square meters. There are 0/9 teaching experimental laboratories/KLOC-,320 computers and 0/60,000 books, and modern teaching facilities such as campus network, multimedia classroom, electronic reading room, language lab and electronic laboratory have been established.

Reform the teaching mode, highlight the specialty construction, implement the requirements of the education administrative department for vocational education, continuously strengthen practical teaching, and strive to improve students' vocational skills. Make full use of modern teaching methods such as campus network, multimedia classroom, language lab and electronic reading room, pay attention to the cultivation of students' practical skills while improving professional theoretical knowledge, and carry out practical teaching activities by using off-campus practice bases and on-campus training rooms. Give full play to the role of teaching resources such as joint education, grade examination and vocational skill appraisal, improve students' academic level and practical skills, and enable students to obtain "multiple certificates" in a limited time.
The school regards "setting personalized majors and cultivating personalized talents" as a new idea of specialty construction. The school now offers nine majors, including construction engineering technology, computer application, marketing and advertising planning, food biotechnology, cooking and management, electromechanical technology application, electronics and information technology, computer accounting, tourism and management. Among them, there are "3+2" higher vocational classes in four majors: construction engineering technology, food processing technology, computerized accounting and computer application technology. If the major is set correctly, students don't have to worry about finding a job. The school adopts the teaching mode of learning and practicing. In the first two years, the school studied theory and trained skills, and in the second year, it went to the training base or the employer for internship, which improved the employability.
The school always attaches importance to the construction of teaching staff and trains professional leaders and backbone teachers. By strengthening and encouraging academic exchanges, teaching and research, self-study, further study, postgraduate entrance examination, social practice and other measures, the academic level and professional level of teachers will be continuously improved. Cultivate "double-qualified" teachers and hire famous technicians with rich practical experience to teach and guide practical teaching. At the same time, it is necessary to make a good entrance to the construction of teaching staff, recruit some undergraduate graduates with excellent academic performance to teach in schools, and constantly replenish reserve forces. In the teaching practice of more than 20 years, a group of powerful teachers with high quality, strong professional skills, fine professionalism, reasonable collocation of old, middle-aged and young, and complementary knowledge structure have been created, which has laid a solid foundation for cultivating high-quality talents.
"All-round" Training Strengthening Education Management School believes that setting up a major close to the market is the first step to train applied talents. In order to make the enrolled students become applied talents to meet the needs of modern management and service industry, we must shape them all the time from the aspects of professional consciousness, professional image, professional ethics, professional behavior and professional transformation ability, and implement "all-round" training to make them truly qualified professionals. Therefore, the school pays attention to students' ideological education, puts students' moral education and formative education in the first place, sets up the concept of "talents first, adults become talents", strengthens students' daily ideological education and mental health education, and at the same time, carries out quality education, guides students to open second classes, participate in social practice activities, hold various colorful cultural and recreational activities, improve students' comprehensive quality, and make the whole school students show the spirit of diligent study, determination to become talents and health.

For the convenience of ethnic minority students, a Muslim canteen has been set up.
Student dormitories are fully enclosed and managed in apartments. Boys and girls live in separate buildings, and six people live in one room. Each dormitory is equipped with two special administrators to maintain public security and health 24 hours a day. The Student Affairs Office organizes activities to create civilized dormitories. Through this activity, the dormitory is clean and tidy, and students have developed good living habits.
Schools help the poor and help poor students complete their studies.

On the basis of the annual tuition fee of 2300 yuan stipulated by the Provincial Department of Education, the charging standard will be reduced. Annual tuition of technical secondary school 1.500 yuan, annual tuition of "3+2" vocational secondary school 1.800 yuan. Accommodation fee is in 300 yuan every year, and students can enjoy a scholarship every semester according to their ideological performance and academic performance. The school has set up a "Love Aid Fund" to help poor students in remote and poor areas complete their studies, reduce the financial burden on their families, and let more out-of-school children return to school.
"Order-based" training to improve employment efficiency Vocational education is employment education. The school has always adhered to the strategy of "expanding the employment of graduates to attract students" and put the employment of students on the agenda. In 2002, the school set up an employment office with full-time staff to strengthen students' employment placement, actively seek market entry points, actively establish contacts with employers inside and outside the province, and broaden employment channels. Actively promote the "order education" employment mode, establish employment delivery channels for graduates with labor agencies and enterprises and institutions in Shanghai, Suzhou, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Fujian, Tianjin, Beijing, Xinjiang and the province, and sign "directional training" agreements with Shanghai Ji Hong Vocational Education Service Company and TPV Electronics Co., Ltd., so that students can have a clear employment destination after entering school and ensure the stable employment of graduates.
Since 2003, the employment situation of graduates in this school has undergone fundamental changes, and employers who come to contact graduates for employment are in an endless stream. In a highly responsible attitude towards students and their parents, the school chooses some employers with professional counterparts, good employment conditions and high pay to arrange students' employment.

In the past two years, the employment of graduates of this school has become more and more popular, and there has been a gratifying situation in which demand exceeds supply. While doing a good job in job placement, the school has strengthened post-employment follow-up services and negotiated with employers to help students solve practical problems after employment. The survey shows that more than 90% of the students are satisfied with their employment units and wages, and the average monthly salary is above that of 800 yuan, and the labor insurance system is implemented.
Over the past 20 years, the school has trained and transported more than 7,000 graduates of various majors for township enterprises and all walks of life in the province, and a large number of them have played a key role in enterprises, institutions or government departments. A number of outstanding talents with successful careers have emerged and made outstanding achievements in economic construction, which have been affirmed and praised by all walks of life and employers.
