Exploration and Practice of Classification Talent Training Model in Local Agricultural Institutes

With the rapid development of modern society, the demand for professional talents in the veterinary industry is increasing and showing a trend of diversification. In order to better adapt to this change and meet the industry's demand for high-quality and versatile veterinary talents, the reform of traditional veterinary professional education is particularly urgent. Taking Shanxi Agricultural University as an example, the veterinary specialty of a local agricultural university actively explored and implemented the "2-2-4" classified talent training model of "three stages, three modules and seven links". This innovative model divides veterinary education into three learning stages, each with targeted teaching modules, and ensures the systematic transmission of knowledge and comprehensive cultivation of skills through seven specific teaching links. In this way, the model effectively solves many problems in traditional teaching, such as weak professional awareness among students, insufficient teacher-student interaction, single ability cultivation among students, and disconnection between teaching and research. It emphasizes the close integration of theory and practice, emphasizes students' active participation and innovation ability cultivation, thereby significantly improving the quality of talent cultivation. In addition, this reform practice of Shanxi Agricultural University not only provides a broader development space and employment opportunities for veterinary students in our university, but also provides useful reference and inspiration for the educational reform of veterinary majors in peer universities. Its successful implementation proves that emphasizing innovative teaching models and diversified talent cultivation in veterinary education is an important way to improve education quality and meet social needs. Therefore, this model has important promotion value and is expected to cultivate more high-quality talents with innovative spirit and practical ability for the veterinary industry.
