China will need 23 types of talents in the next 10 years

The forecast of talent demand by relevant national departments in the next 10 years shows that my country will need 23 types of talents in the future.

1. Accounting. In particular, accountants who are familiar with professional business and international affairs will become popular talents.

2. Electronic information.

The current demand for talents in our society is electronic information. The electronic information industry is an emerging high-tech industry and is called a sunrise industry. According to the analysis of the Ministry of Information Industry, the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period is a critical period for the development of my country's electronic information industry. It is expected that the electronic information industry will still develop rapidly at a rate that is about twice higher than the economic growth rate, and the industry prospects are very broad.

Future development focuses on electronic information product manufacturing, software industry, integrated circuits and other industries; emerging communication businesses such as data communications, multimedia, Internet, telephone information services, mobile phone text messages and other businesses will also expand rapidly; Also worthy of attention are cultural and technological industries, such as online games. Currently, four types of talents are most in short supply in the demand for information technology support talents: technical troubleshooting, equipment and customer service, hardware and software installation, configuration updates and system operation, monitoring and maintenance. Additionally, e-commerce and interactive media, database development, and software engineering are also in high demand.

3. Biotechnology The 21st century is the century of biology, and the development of biotechnology economy is an inevitable trend. It is understood that biotechnology companies with an annual output value of over 100 million yuan have been booming across the country, and various regions regard biotechnology as a breakthrough for economic development. However, the development of biotechnology requires new talents with the ability to work independently and good scientific qualities, especially the ability to create and implement. Biological research talents have been one of the focuses of international talent competition in recent years. Our country currently has a serious shortage of biotech researchers and biotech product development talents. There will be a huge demand for biotech talents in the country in the future. Relevant experts predict that with the development and industrial upgrading of genetic technology, bioengineering and other fields, the gap in such high-tech professionals will become larger and larger.

4. Modern medicine The global modern pharmaceutical technology industry continues to show rapid growth, and the modern biotechnology industry has become the new focus of international competition in the pharmaceutical industry. Relevant experts pointed out that in the face of increasingly direct and fierce international market competition, it is imperative for my country to develop modern traditional Chinese medicine and biomedical technology industries. In particular, the modern traditional Chinese medicine industry is not only developing rapidly in the world, but also one of the fastest-growing industries in my country. It has now become a potential strategic industry in my country with strong development advantages and broad market prospects. The Ministry of Science and Technology has listed "Innovative Drugs and Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine" as one of the 12 major national science and technology projects during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period.

5. Automotive As cars have gradually become a necessity in our lives, the automotive major has also become a very popular major in society. Automotive professionals have become a hot commodity. Comprehensive talents in the automotive industry will become the focus of competition, such as automotive design talents who are proficient in foreign languages, marketing talents with automotive technology background, and IT professionals with automotive sales background. , as well as financial talents such as automobile credit and insurance will continue to be in demand this year. In addition, the demand for thermal energy and power engineering, industrial design and other related professional talents will also continue to increase.

6. After the logistics category joins the WTO, as my country further opens its market in road freight, warehousing, maritime transportation, ship agency, etc., my country's relevant industries and enterprises will carry out comprehensive cooperation with foreign logistics enterprises. , which means that my country’s modern logistics will enter a new period of rapid growth and comprehensive development. Experts predict that in the next 10 years or even longer, my country's logistics industry will approach or catch up with the logistics development level of developed countries. At present, the country needs more than 6 million mid- to high-level logistics professionals, and logistics professionals have been listed as one of the 12 types of in-demand talents in my country. By 2010, the demand for logistics talents at college or above in my country will be approximately 300,000 to 400,000. Currently, the annual training scale of logistics majors in various colleges and universities is around 5,000 people. There are three types of logistics planning and consulting, logistics export-oriented international, and logistics scientific research. Talent is most lacking in the industry.

7. New materials New materials have a wide range of applications and broad development prospects. Their R&D level and industrialization scale have become important indicators of a country’s economic development, technological progress and national defense strength. Since the beginning of the "Tenth Five-Year Plan", the national industrial policy orientation has been clearly tilted towards high-tech industries represented by the new materials industry, which will undoubtedly have an important role in promoting the development of the new materials industry. At the same time, the development of domestic pillar industries and high-tech industries has continued to expand the demand for new materials. The rapid development of pillar industries such as machinery manufacturing, electronic information manufacturing, automobile industry, and construction has put forward demands on the quality, performance, and quantity of raw materials. The high-tech industry will drive an increase in the demand for new materials, especially electronic information materials, which will grow at a rate of 20 to 30% per year, and biomedical materials, which will grow at a rate of about 20%. In addition, the demand for new energy materials, ecological environment materials, aerospace materials and other new materials will increase rapidly with the development of social economy; the demand for composite materials will increase significantly, especially resin-based composite materials.

8. Environmental energy The environmental protection industry is known as the sunrise industry of the 21st century and has huge development potential. With the substantial increase in investment in environmental protection, my country's environmental protection industry has developed rapidly and has become an important part of the national economy. The rapid development and significant benefits of the environmental protection industry are undoubtedly the result of the research and development of environmental protection technicians. However, at present, my country's environmental protection industry is facing a serious shortage of talents, and the existing environmental protection technical talents are difficult to adapt to the development of the national economy. If environmental protection technicians are calculated at 5 times the number of environmental protection practitioners, 500,000 people will be needed. However, my country's existing environmental protection technical personnel are far from actual needs, and the task of cultivating environmental protection technical talents is very arduous. At the same time, the development and utilization of renewable energy has also become an important part of the world's sustainable energy development strategy. Government policy support, social recognition, and China's abundant renewable resources have given my country's new energy industry a very broad development prospect.

9. Management Since joining the WTO and successfully bidding for the Olympic Games will directly drive the great development of my country's foreign economy and foreign trade, the social demand for management professionals will increase significantly soon. In modern enterprises, the role of an excellent entrepreneur exceeds that of 100 excellent engineers and 1,000 excellent workers. At present, more and more enterprises in our country are converting the property rights, mechanisms and corporate legal persons to implement the bidding system and annual salary system. In fact, this means handing over the management power of the enterprise to the hands of professional entrepreneurs. According to statistics from my country in the past three years, the number of foreign agents is increasing at a rate of more than 500 per year, and a professional class has now formed in many big cities. Whether it is a foreign company or a state-owned enterprise, the value of senior managers is increasingly bullish. Therefore, although students majoring in business management may not be doing management work when they first graduate, in a few years, people with a management background will become hot commodities, and MBAs will still be one of the objects that companies compete for.

10. Legal At present, there is a shortage of lawyer talents in our country. According to incomplete statistics, there are currently less than 20,000 full-time lawyers qualified as lawyers in my country, with an average of only two lawyers per 100,000 people, and the number of companies hiring lawyers only accounts for a few thousandths of all companies, both in terms of quantity and quality. The quality is far from meeting the needs of society. It can be seen that the contradiction between supply and demand of lawyer talents in my country is very prominent. At the same time, as the legal awareness of the whole people is gradually increasing, and the legal awareness of enterprises is also increasing, the concept of contractualization is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the demand for legal professionals will be greatly increased. The legal profession has therefore become one of the popular professions in the future.

11. Marketing As my country’s market economy continues to improve, marketing has penetrated into various enterprises, and people will have a deeper understanding of the concept of marketing, so there is a demand for talents in this area. It will continue to be optimistic and may continue to heat up. With the commercial development of my country's housing system and the increasingly prosperous commercial housing credit business, purchasing commercial housing has become the first choice investment for the vast majority of Chinese people. Competition among real estate developers has also become increasingly fierce. Among them, the most effective promotion method is to hire Real estate salesman. With the sharp price reduction of cars and the year-by-year increase in national income, it is no longer a myth that cars will enter more than one-third of China's households in the 21st century. Therefore, car marketers will also be popular in the workplace. Insurance salespeople will also become a popular profession in the 21st century after experiencing "hard work" in the 1990s. Therefore, the overall demand for marketing professionals will increase.

12. IT talents

Shortage situation of IT talents

The National Vocational School Computer Application and Software Technology Professional Field Training Seminar was recently held in Fuzhou City. The reporter learned that , At present, society has a huge demand for IT professionals. In the IT training market, vocational skills training is quietly gaining popularity.

According to surveys, the current national demand for IT talents is at least 1 million per year, and the demand in our province is also 20,000 to 30,000. However, there is currently a talent shortage. As a national-level software The Fuzhou Software Park also issued a call for thousands of IT talents in urgent need.

The reasons for the shortage of IT talents are believed by experts at the meeting to be related to the following factors: it is difficult to cultivate talents in market demand with existing academic education, and a large number of college graduates have no practical application and operation of information technology. They have received formal and systematic training, and IT certification training programs are constantly being launched. Although many certification training programs authorized by manufacturers have begun to appear, the quality of the training varies.

It is understood that the IT training launched by some training institutions is a brand-new talent training method that will play an important role in making up for the shortage of IT talents.

The IT shortage talent training project was launched recently. The Education and Training Center of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security teamed up with Huayu International Education Group to jointly launch this project.

Domestic IT industry training has reached its sixth year, but there is still a shortage of practical IT talents in the industry: on the one hand, a large number of computer major graduates cannot find jobs, and vocational training students have not reached the level of The real needs of enterprises; on the other hand, major IT companies cannot find suitable computer talents with high salaries.

According to Song Lianhui, director of the Education and Training Center of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, joining hands with the education group and taking the road of unity, the combination of the two parties can complement each other's advantages, and the two parties will explore cooperation between government department training institutions and social training institutions patterns and mechanisms.

13. Computers. Talents engaged in computer software and hardware design, development, and management will become popular, such as computer programmers and network management experts.

14. Environmental protection: Industrial hygienists and biologists will become urgently needed talents.

Consulting services industry. Consulting services will penetrate into various industries in society, so generalists who integrate economics, finance, statistics, computers and other professional knowledge are needed.
