Chen Ziji, director of the Education Development and Research Center under the Ministry of Education, said that “vocational education is an integral part of China’s education system” and the education and training system must be further improved.

He said closer cooperation between schools and enterprises is an important path.

“The vocational schools now have limited decision-making power to meet the demands of the market,” Chen said.

Lu Jiandong, president of Beijing-based Zhongqi Chuangyou, an enterprise management and consulting company, said the talents cultivated by the vocational schools in China to a certain degree don’t meet the demands of the market.

“Many graduates need re-training before taking up their posts,” Lu said.

To solve the bottleneck, industry professionals in the market must be hired to provide hands-on experience and the latest information, he said.
