Where Are The Senior Technicians? Textile Upgrading Is Imminent

There is a huge gap of skilled talents for China's industrial development. According to relevant statistics, in Japan, senior technicians account for 40% of the total industrial workforce, while in Germany they account for 50%. In China, the proportion is only about 5%, and there is a gap of nearly 10 million senior technicians. The 2017 talent blue book China Talent Development Report (NO.4) released by the Social Sciences Academic Press points out that there is a gap of tens of millions of senior technicians in China.

This year's Government Work Report has repeatedly mentioned the "craftsman spirit", which makes people pay close attention to the training of skilled talents required for industrial development. Recently, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security held a meeting to implement the 13th Five Year Plan for Technician Education. Tang Tao, vice minister of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said that we should vigorously develop the education of skilled workers, and focus on training backup industrial workers and highly skilled talents with innovative ability.

By the end of 2015, there were 2545 technical colleges and universities in China, including 434 technical colleges and universities, with 3.22 million students, the employment rate reached 97.4%, and the employment rate of backbone colleges and universities reached 100%. It can be seen that skilled workers are very popular in the job market. Specifically, in the textile and clothing industry, the status quo of technical education and vocational skills training of employees and Market supply and demand How is it going? Ni Yangsheng, president of China Textile and Garment Education Association, said in an interview that textile colleges and universities generally do a good job in vocational education in terms of talent training, which is closely integrated with the actual needs of the industry, but there are also prominent problems of "good employment, difficult enrollment".

At present, the country vigorously advocates the "craftsman spirit" of the manufacturing industry, which has played a great role in encouraging the cultivation of textile skilled personnel. At present, the biggest problem in the supply and demand of skilled talents in the industry is the difficulty in enrollment, and students' enthusiasm and willingness to apply for the exam are not strong. The main reasons include two aspects: first, the whole society's understanding of the textile industry is generally inadequate; Second, the outside world does not know enough about the changes in the textile industry, and the degree of the increase in wages and salaries is not very satisfactory.

According to Ni Yangsheng, there are about 200 undergraduate textile and clothing colleges, about 300 higher vocational colleges, and about 900 secondary vocational schools in China. Last year, the employment situation of graduates from higher vocational and secondary vocational colleges in textile and garment industry in China was very good. Especially in the field of clothing vocational education, compared with foreign countries, China is ahead.

Because of textile Clothing enterprises Early integration into the market economy and deep integration with various vocational schools, the school has also made great efforts to link up with the industrial demand, so this part of education and industrial demand are well matched. To reverse the situation of "high demand and difficult enrollment", first, we need to increase publicity to let the whole society know more about the real textile and clothing industry, which is not only the image of labor-intensive industry, but also an industry integrating fashion, technology and wisdom. We should encourage young people to take textile and clothing as the direction of career development; Second, the industry should pay more attention to the training of talents to meet the talent needs of enterprises extending from production oriented enterprises to production service oriented enterprises; The third is to strengthen school enterprise cooperation, which not only includes enterprises providing internship bases for students, but also requires deeper role interaction between both sides and close connection between upstream and downstream needs.

In this year's Government Work Report, it was clearly stated that "we should vigorously promote the spirit of craftsmen and cultivate many 'Chinese craftsmen'", which has produced great repercussions throughout the country, especially in the manufacturing industry. In order to cultivate more "Chinese craftsmen", the state clearly proposed in the Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Talent Development System and Mechanism that measures should be taken in terms of salary, settlement, training, etc., to improve the economic treatment and social status of technical and skilled talents. In the future, industrial workers will get more social respect and value expression, and many students will join in the new Textile manufacturing Will be more promising.

As for the topic that the supply of graduates in the textile industry is in short supply, but the enrollment rate is not ideal, we have always stressed that the textile industry is becoming more and more intelligent, and the image of textile workers has long been different; However, aren't craftsmen of handicraft type senior talents? Take the highly sought after luxury brand Chanel as an example. If there is no artisan workshop, how can today's perfection be achieved?
