“two new” integrations are the mission requirements of the era for the applied talent development of higher education institutions and are a necessary option for the economic and social development of the region. The college of labour relations of shandong institute of management, based on its professional characteristics, is proactive in responding to the needs of regional development strategies and industrial configurations, embedding the education and innovation chain of human talent development into the local industrial chain of development, and demonstrating its value and contribution in the process of promoting the deeper integration of scientific, technological and industrial innovation。
From “classroom breeders” to “industrial breeders”, skills development is integrated into local development
"in that moment, i really felt the power of the rule of law to protect the rights of workers." the students in the field of labour relations express their belief that “original labour laws in the classroom can really be translated into reality and become a solid safeguard for the rights and interests of every worker”. The student's internship at the labour disputes tribunal of the human welfare bureau is a unique “walking thinking and politics course”, which is the vivid microcosm in which the institute of labour relations extends the breeding ground to the practical practice base and promotes the deep integration of the campus。
In recent years, the college has addressed the need for the transformation of new humanities and industrial development, actively integrating into the frontier areas of artificial intelligence and digital labour, and has made efforts in the fields of “special” labour relations, public relations and labour and social security, as well as in the fields of “precision” human resources management, social work and the development of an industrial sector in a specialized area。
“what is really needed by employers is a composite talent capable of translating theoretical knowledge into practical applications.” “the model of pre-positioning the student internship chain into the undergraduate development process, of hands-on training on the digital human resources management platform in conjunction with the specialized courses, which is directly embedded in the actual experience of the enterprise project team, is extremely practical for the enterprise.” from hands-on courses to intensive internships to job practices, the classroom and the enterprise are well connected and seamlessly connected, making a real “last kilometre” of demand in the talent supply service industry。
From “volunteer activities” to “community governance”, professional building is integrated into a real service landscape
“do you know what cultural stories are hidden on this paint fan, little friends?” in the classroom of the vande street kindergarten in long qing, student volunteers are carrying a non-painted fan to tell children about traditional culture. This is a microcosm of the institute's professional services at the grass-roots level around the development needs of the yellow river beach area of the long clan。
The college organizes teachers and students in close collaboration with local services in areas such as grass-roots governance, livelihood security, rural renewal and cultural heritage. Students in social work regularly organize community streets, carry out practical activities of the “social worker+volunteer” service to assist in the development of the yellow river beach area. Under the guidance of social work stations, student volunteers form community care teams, regularly visit older persons living alone, enrich the after-school service for community children, participate in community reconciliation at the grass-roots level and use professional social work methods to resolve neighbourhood disputes. In the context of the child care initiative in the yellow beach region, the teachers and students team carefully designed such thematic activities as “non-genetics” and “individual education” and “safeguarding”, which combine teacher guidance, institutional supervision and voluntary practice to enable students to transform “social workers in books” into “social workers in scenes” and to gain growth experience and professional competitiveness in real service settings. The content of the service has become more dynamic and effective, further deepening the collaboration between pro bono organizations, universities and local authorities。
From “output” to “scientific empowerment”, the paper is really written in china
“responsibility takes precedence over tarzan, innovation leads the future”, the college participated in the first tarzan forum on social responsibility, which provided a good example of active exploration of service social responsibility practices and talent development. The institute's declared “digital trades and crafts engineering research centre” has successfully approved a provincial platform as an important vehicle for promoting the deeper integration of science, technology and innovation with industrial innovation, focusing on the twin-wheel drive of the “intelligence manufacturing + trade union think tank” and actively serving the new and old dynamic energy conversion in shandong province and trade union reform innovations, providing strong talent support for the construction of the digital power province。
The institute focuses on the three main disciplines of public policy, trade union management and social security, and digital public governance, focusing on issues of new quality productivity and upgrading of skills of industrial workers, labour rights and interests in new forms of employment, modernization of trade union governance, and responding to the needs of local industrial development as intellectual engines for regional development. Recently, an analysis of the labour situation and development of new employment groups, prepared by the teachers ' team, was adopted by the ministry as an important reference for the development of new employment groups and the formulation of policies at the national level. At the same time, a number of high-quality research results and special reports have been positively endorsed by the provincial ministerial leadership, demonstrating the value of research and think tanks. The academy is linked to high-quality scientific research, effectively linking institutions of higher learning, government, business and social resources, promoting human development with industrial development, and building innovative ecological systems that are closely coordinated and in-depth in political science。
From “social services” to “breeding together”, schools work with symbiotic communities to build new ecology
“this training is not an ordinary skill training, but a comprehensive, high-standard, systematic upgrading. We have learned to produce `micro-curriculars' in front of distinguished scholars and great craftsmen, working with mentors to explore critical issues. “the participants in the trades and crafts development targeting course are deeply touched. The college, based on the ziru institute of trades and crafts, which is strongly supported by the national confederation of trades and crafts, is closely aligned with the major strategy of reforming the industrial workforce, and it has been able to integrate the construction of the college of trades and crafts in depth with the development of the trades and crafts staff。
The college combines the advantages of the cross-disciplinary aspects of labour relations with the development of craftsmen, building on the professional advantages of the country's leading undergraduate professional development points, continuing to develop a “collective consultation” training brand for the trade union system throughout the province, in the face of the disruptive changes brought about by artificial intelligence, developing a system of skills upgrading for craftsmen who meet the needs of industrial development, and translating the results of professional theoretical innovation into a core curriculum for craftsmen's development. In december 2025, schools joined the shandong general trade union and the shandong department of education in organizing an all-provincial trades and crafts college quality curriculum competition to promote the optimization of the curriculum system and further promote the sharing of quality teaching resources across the province. At the same time, focusing on digital empowerment and theoretical innovation, spearheaded the development of the online digital platform for trades and crafts cultivation, launched a series of studies with important decision-making and social impact, and received numerous positive instructions from key provincial ministers, such as the shandong general trade union, to provide a theoretical core for quality development in the service of trade unions and upgrading the skills of industrial workers。
From a walk-in thinking course to a series of volunteer activities, from a high-quality think tank report to the construction of a workforce of industrial workers throughout the province, the institute of labour relations is moving forward with a solid pace towards a coordinated development path in a well-integrated, symbiotic school. In this context, the boundaries between human development and social services are constantly expanding, professional development and industrial demand are resonating, research has taken root and the integration of research and development in politics is continuing。
