Skills are the foundation of a strong country and the foundation of industry, and skilled talents are an important force to support Made in China and Created in China. At present, the total number of skilled talents in the mainland has exceeded 200 million, including more than 60 million high-skilled talents. From the front-line workers who specialize in "gnawing hard bones" and devoting themselves to research, to the technical talents who innovate the intelligent manufacturing process, from the fledgling star craftsmen to the great craftsmen who "choose one thing for a lifetime...... All kinds of skilled talents are active in the front line of production such as construction sites and factory workshops, and are becoming an important force leading the new economy and cultivating new kinetic energy.

In recent years, with the development of economy and society, the demand for skilled talents has become more and more prominent, and the training of skilled talents has received unprecedented attention. In terms of top-level design, a series of policies and measures such as the implementation plan of the "Skills China Action", the "14th Five-Year Plan" for technical education, and the implementation plan for promoting the integration of engineering and learning in technical colleges and universities have gradually made the construction goals and paths of a skill-based society clear. In terms of the cultivation of skilled personnel, the mainland has built the world's largest vocational education system, with tens of thousands of vocational schools, and middle and higher vocational schools train about 10 million high-quality technical and skilled talents of different types every year. In many parts of the country, through "training delivered to the doorstep", more and more urban and rural workers can eat "technical rice", and more enterprise employees can stabilize their "employment jobs" through systematic and targeted vocational skills training. At the same time, the vocational skills competition system at all levels in the mainland is also constantly improving, and efforts are being made to build a "horse racing and training" platform for skilled talents to show their superb skills and learn from each other.

We must also note that there is still a big talent gap for senior technicians on the mainland. It is estimated that by 2025, there will be a talent gap of nearly 30 million people in the ten key areas of China's manufacturing industry, with a gap rate of 48%. It is more and more urgent to improve the adaptability of vocational education, accelerate the improvement of the policy support system for the growth of skilled talents, and encourage more workers to strive for high-skilled talents and realize the dream of serving the country with skills. In this regard, on the one hand, we must continue to deepen the reform of vocational education, integrate the design of secondary vocational, higher vocational and undergraduate vocational education training systems, and cultivate more high-quality skilled talents in the production line by deepening the integration of industry and education. On the other hand, it is necessary to guide the majority of workers, especially the young generation, to pay attention to skills, learn skills, and devote themselves to skills, vigorously promote the spirit of model workers, labor spirit, and craftsman spirit, insist on creating a social atmosphere that advocates skills, respects skills, and achieves skills, and continues to improve the sense of professional honor, achievement, and happiness of skilled talents, so as to attract more young people to choose to take the road of becoming skilled talents.
