Zhong Fa [2002] No.7 "Regulations on the Selection and Appointment of Leading Cadres of the Party and Government" stipulates that one of the qualifications for being promoted to the leading positions of the party and government is: "Leading cadres at or above the prefectural (ministerial) level should generally have a bachelor's degree or above." In the open selection of leading cadres at or above the deputy department level in various places, bachelor degree or above is generally required. In addition, according to the characteristics of specific positions and the special needs of the work, the professional knowledge and educational level required for the public election of specific positions are generally further stipulated, but those who have the same academic qualifications recognized by the state and meet other qualifications can also apply for the exam. Moreover, from the needs of the construction of leading bodies and cadres and their work, many places have also organized open selection of highly educated talents and different types of talents such as female cadres, non-party cadres and young cadres.
