Exploration of Innovative and Entrepreneurial Talent Cultivation Models in Vocational Colleges: A Case Study of Medical Laboratory Technology

Abstract

With the rapid advancement of medical laboratory technology and the urgent demand for high-quality talent in the healthcare industry, the reform of educational practices and innovation in talent cultivation models within vocational colleges have become critically important. The traditional teaching methodologies are increasingly inadequate in meeting the market's demand for innovative and entrepreneurial medical professionals, resulting in graduates lacking essential competencies in real-world settings. This review analyzes the current educational landscape and market needs for medical laboratory technology, integrating innovative entrepreneurship education concepts. It proposes systematic reform suggestions across various dimensions, including cultivation objectives, curriculum systems, practical teaching, faculty development, industry-school collaboration, and evaluation mechanisms. The aim is to provide theoretical support and practical guidance for cultivating talent in medical laboratory technology at vocational colleges, promoting deep integration between education and industry, and fostering high-quality medical laboratory professionals that align with societal needs.
