In order to solve the problem of shortage of field engineers,five departments including the Ministry of Education,and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued a notice to launch the"Special Training Program for Vocational Education Field Engineers".Based on this program,this article discusses the role of field engineers in the technology industrialization chain from the perspective of technology industrializa-tion,as well as the differences in ability and quality structure between field engineers and other types of engineers and technical skilled talents.On this basis,this article proposes the training path for field engineers in higher vo-cational colleges,including building a dual-teacher structure team for integration of teaching and learning,and jointly carrying out modern apprenticeship training between schools and enterprises.This article aims to provide a useful reference for the training of field engineers in higher vocational colleges.
