1、 Implement the international school running strategy and serve the industrial development of Ningbo

Under the special background of regional industry, Ningbo garment vocational education has a deeper meaning in taking the road of international school running. The garment industry is a traditional competitive industry in Ningbo, with more than 3000 production enterprises. As the birthplace and important production base of modern Chinese clothing Clothes & Accessories Culture has become a city card of Ningbo. It can be said that the healthy development of the clothing industry is an important part of Ningbo's economic and cultural progress. Ningbo garment industry, which used to be dominated by "men's wear manufacturing", has been in an advantageous position in the domestic garment market competition for a long time. In recent years, with the development of Shandong, Fujian, Guangdong and other domestic garment industry regions, the traditional dominant position of Ningbo's garment industry is being challenged. In addition to the huge impact brought by the changes in the market environment such as the adjustment of the division of labor in the international industrial chain and the decline of cost advantages, Ningbo's clothing industry needs to establish new advantages, especially to enhance the connection with advanced countries in the industry, follow the trend of fashion and global creative development, and work hard on clothing design, fabric research and development, and brand building. As a result, the development of Ningbo garment industry objectively puts forward a strong demand for international talent training. In particular, Ningbo garment vocational education, which is consistent with the rise and fall of the garment industry, should actively expand its vision, face the world, introduce and absorb foreign talent training models, establish an international level school enterprise cooperation platform, and integrate advanced fashion elements into Ningbo garment industry Make preparations for the overall transformation and upgrading of the industry.

As a vocational college characterized by garment education, Zhejiang Textile and Garment Vocational and Technical College (hereinafter referred to as "the College") actively gives play to its advantages in international talent and technology exchange, construction of school enterprise cooperation platform and cultivation of high skilled technical personnel, and strives to cultivate the core competitiveness of Ningbo garment vocational education through international school running practice, Provide strong talent support and social services for shaping the new image of "Ningbo City of Clothing".

It has always been the most important social responsibility of the college to provide a large number of high-quality skilled technicians for the development of the clothing industry. In terms of cultivating international talents that meet the requirements of the development of modern clothing industry, the college has been constantly exploring and practicing, forming a "Sino foreign two-way integration" school running idea with the purpose of serving the social development of Ningbo and focusing on clothing vocational education. In recent years, the college has cooperated with Raffles LaSalle Education Group in Singapore, Suono Clothing University in Japan, Daegu University of Technology in South Korea to set up school running projects such as clothing design, fashion marketing and management, and character design. It has signed cooperation agreements with 11 educational institutions in Japan, South Korea, Italy, Britain, Taiwan, Hong Kong and other countries or regions to make the college clothing The level of teachers, teaching contents, talent training concepts and standards of art and other professional groups are in line with those of well-known foreign universities.
