Professor Li Yang, former vice president of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said: "The competition in international finance, in the final analysis, is the competition of financial talents. The major mission of building a strong financial country provides a rare historical opportunity for the development of financial education in mainland China. The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences should live up to the trust of the times, guide the reform and development of financial education with the scientific outlook on development, and make its due contribution to the revitalization of financial education and the development of the financial industry on the mainland."

The students who participate in the program have a wealth of experience in the workplace, and most of them have long-term career development in China. In China, where the market economy is developing rapidly, they often consider the issue of input and output, which not only refers to tuition fees, but also alternative costs, many people will ask themselves a question, how much income can I earn when I go to work at the same time? The new theory is undoubtedly a very wise and far-sighted choice.
