The employment rate for graduates from polytechnics or vocational schools is more than 95 percent, higher than that for their college counterparts, according to a report by the Ministry of Education on middle-level vocational education.
The message is such schools provide the right people with the right skills for enterprises and they meet the needs of the country's industrial development.
That more than 6 million graduates from such schools have entered manufacturing enterprises from 2007 to 2011 speaks volumes for how important a source of labor they are for the country's manufacturing industry. From 2006 to 2011, more than 30 million graduates joined the total workforce.
