    經過30多年的改革開放，到中國正式加入世界貿易組織第15年的時候，中國已經成為全球第二大經濟體、世界第一大貿易國、世界第一大吸引外資國和世界第二大對外投資國。“十九大”報告中有關2035年和2050年的宏偉藍圖，讓我們憧憬，催我們奮進！今後30年是我國由貿易大國向貿易強國演變的時期，這段時間也正是我們完成中華民族偉大復興、實現“中國夢”的時期。    中國進入新時代，社會生活的各個方面都在發生迅速而深刻的變化，教育領域中人纔培養的理念和模式也要跟上時代的步伐。以往那種重學歷、重證書、重應試的做法必定要讓位於重能力、重實踐、重素養的理念和探索。社會需求、企業需求、家長需求、學生需求必然得到尊重。由此，人纔對社會經濟發展和創新轉型的貢獻度也必將大大提高。    等
