The Ministry of Education issued the "Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Key Elements in Vocational Education Teaching" today, proposing to dynamically adjust the setting of majors, actively introduce new majors, eliminate excess ones, and upgrade existing majors. Focus on the cultivation of high-skilled talents, increase the overall coordination and optimization of adjustments to professional settings, and strictly implement the "red-yellow card" warning system. Utilize big data and artificial intelligence to accurately predict the supply and demand of talents in key areas of education, providing scientific basis for dynamic adjustments of majors. Explore the establishment of a fast response channel for adding new majors, focusing on emerging and future industries, and adding new majors in areas such as low-altitude economy, artificial intelligence, high-end equipment, urban renewal, and essential areas for people's lives. The Ministry of Education requires provinces to develop professional setting plans based on the development plan of key industries in the region, and to publish an analysis report on the match between vocational education majors and industry development every year.
