Overall assessment: After 19 months of implementing the Resolution of the 25th Party Congress, the entire Party Committee has successfully achieved the vast majority of the set targets. However, there are still some targets, especially those related to improving the quality of the cadre, where Party branches and units need to be more resolute in implementing the planned objectives.
2. Report on the results of improving the quality of the staff and some solutions for developing the staff in the future..
The school's staff has remained stable in both quantity and quality over the past period: the total number of staff is currently 518, including 379 teaching staff and 139 administrative staff. 78.62% of the teaching staff hold postgraduate degrees, with 32.18% holding doctorates (the target for 2010 was 85%, with 60% holding doctorates); 16.35% of the staff hold professor or associate professor titles (the target for 2010 was 20%).
However, the number of teaching staff is still insufficient compared to the assigned tasks; the proportion of staff with doctoral degrees and professorships/associate professorships is still low compared to the requirements of high-quality training; and the level of foreign language proficiency required for teaching in a foreign language is still low.
To overcome the limitations in the quality of the teaching staff, in the coming period it is necessary to promote the training and rational utilization of leading and specialized staff, and to strengthen the comprehensive training of young staff, especially focusing on increasing the proportion of PhD holders and foreign language proficiency among the teaching staff.
Solutions to improve the qualifications of staff: Build a team of leading and specialized staff; accelerate the rate of lecturers meeting standards. Effectively implement regulations on training, professional development, and management of staff and civil servants. Develop a plan to improve the professional skills and foreign language proficiency of staff; have preferential policies, financial support, and rewards for staff who strive to meet standards.
