According to him, the uniqueness of each student should be respected, and the potential of students can be fully explored by rejecting the assembly-line mode of talent cultivation and adopting personalized education so as to enable students to precisely match the diverse needs of the industry and lay a solid foundation of talent pool for industry-education integration.
Dr. Lu Dan, CEO and President of Geely Talent Development Group, said, "The concept of the 'three campuses' construction has underpinned Geely's new talent development system. Based on this, we have planned and launched today's 'Cornerstone Plan,' which not only provides a better development platform for students but also offers a talent pool for the enterprises to innovate. And this will also provide new experiences and cases for higher education’s industry-education integration in China and around the world."
The launch of the "Cornerstone Plan" marks an important milestone for Geely Holding Group in the field of industry-education integration. Facing the waves of change and renovation in artificial intelligence, new energy, and other fields, Geely willcontinue to deepen the "talent forest" concept.
