Prof. Tian Min, President of NJCIT, Prof. Yu Baoming from the Department of Industry-Education Integrated Development, and Ma Yongbing, Dean of School of Electronic Information attended the dialogue. Through this conference, we have gained a clearer understanding of the opportunities and challenges facing vocational education in the new era, including the new layout systems, requirements, and actions necessary for its development. We also explored the strategic deployment of vocational education reform and the pathways for constructing modern vocational education systems. This provides valuable insights for the top-level design of the national 'Double High-Level Initiative' and the practical implementation of specialized groups.
