Service the High-quality Development of Local Cultural Tourism Economy

Research on the Cultivation Path of Practical Ability of Cultural Tourism Teachers

Abstract

To address the critical challenge of insufficient capacity in cultivating cultural tourism faculty for county-level economic development under Guangdong Province's "Double Hundred Initiative" and "Hundred-Thousand-Ten Thousand Project", this study proposes an industry-practice-oriented training model for cultural tourism educators. By bridging the gap between traditional training models and local needs, the model establishes a "industry-education integration foundation" framework. Through establishing a matrix of practice bases featuring "industry empowerment + county services + rural outreach", it creates a "triple synergy and two-way empowerment" long-term mechanism. The "three entities and four-stage" competency development pathway precisely enhances teachers' core capabilities in serving county-level cultural tourism. This approach increases the proportion of "dual-qualified" faculty and improves student training quality, with the model being widely promoted both on and off campus and awarded a provincial teaching achievement award. The model effectively breaks down barriers in collaborative education among universities, local governments, and enterprises, providing a replicable practical paradigm for cultivating cultural tourism faculty and supporting high-quality regional cultural tourism economic development in applied undergraduate institutions.
