Analysis of the Pros and Cons of the Current Chinese Medicine Education System and Strategies for Improvement

The current system of Chinese medicine education is centered on institutional education, teacher-training education, and continuing education, and it has realized the dynamic match between the supply of talents and the demand of the industry through large-scale cultivation, innovative teacher-training integration, and multi-dimensional continuing education. However, there are still problems such as the disconnection between the theory and practice of institutional education, the limited development of teacher-training education on a large scale, the uneven quality of continuing education, the conflict of combined education of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, and the obstruction of internationalized education. This paper proposes to reconstruct the institutional curriculum system, innovate the stratified classification system of teacher training, strengthen the practice orientation of continuing education, promote the in-depth integration of Chinese and Western medicine, and improve the policy guarantee mechanism, and other improvement paths, aiming to build a new type of Chinese medicine personnel training system that emphasizes both classical inheritance and modern innovation, and the complementarity between institutional education and teacher training, so as to provide a decision-making reference for the sustainable development of Chinese medicine education.
