The Ministry of Education announced the first list of employment and education projects, and Alibaba International Station was approved for 225 projects

The Department of Higher Education Students of the Ministry of Education organized enterprises and universities to implement the supply-demand matching employment and education project. The project was launched in August 2021 , and a total of 347 enterprises submitted project applications. After a series of work such as expert review and information verification of project units, the list of the first phase of the supply-demand matching employment and education project was finally determined.

In the list of approved projects, Alibaba International Station was approved for a total of 225 employment and education projects, ranking second among all participating companies. The project cooperation content includes three diversified forms of school-enterprise cooperation: targeted talent training, employment internship bases, and human resources improvement.

There are as many as 96 universities that cooperate with Alibaba International Station in the employment and education project , including famous domestic universities such as Nanjing University, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Nankai University, Hunan University, China University of Geosciences, Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Sichuan International Studies University , etc. There are also vocational colleges such as Hebei Industrial Vocational and Technical University, Hunan Transportation Vocational and Technical College, Guangdong Finance and Trade Vocational College, Guizhou Electronic Commerce Vocational and Technical College, Wuhan Ship Vocational and Technical College, etc.

Statistics from the Ministry of Education show that the number of college graduates in 2022 will exceed 10 million for the first time, reaching 10.76 million, an increase of 1.67 million over the previous year, setting a new record in both scale and increase. When graduation season coincides with the epidemic, many people say that this year may be the "hardest" graduation season in history .

In this regard, the Ministry of Education , the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and other departments have taken action to deploy and implement a plan to recruit one million job internship positions to further promote the employment internship work of college graduates. As a member of the corporate group, Alibaba International Station has a social responsibility to contribute to the country's efforts to stabilize employment . To this end, Alibaba International Station actively participates in the supply and demand docking employment and education project, and contributes to "stabilizing employment" to the best of its ability.

In fact, Alibaba International Station has always attached great importance to the linkage between schools and enterprises and the promotion of employment, and has adhered to long-termism and continued investment. Since 2015, Alibaba International Station has launched a cross-border e-commerce talent training project, mainly for college students to provide professional training such as cross-border e-commerce operations. At the beginning of 2020, the Ministry of Education's vocational training "1+X" project confirmed that Alibaba International Station is the exclusive training and evaluation organization for cross-border e-commerce B2B data operation talents. So far, the International Station has cooperated with 547 universities across the country and has trained more than 350,000 cross-border e-commerce professionals .

In May 2021 , Alibaba International Station also jointly released the "Cross-border E-commerce B2B Data Operation Professional Skills Standard" with Tsinghua University . This is not only the first international cross-border e-commerce talent standard in China certified by the Ministry of Education , but also data shows that nearly 20,000 college graduates have obtained cross-border e-commerce talent certificates through the above-mentioned projects , and more than 50% of graduates have their first order after employment exceeding US$10,000. By comparison, it was found that the average monthly salary of students who have not yet obtained the certificate during the internship period is 3,633 yuan, while the average monthly salary of those who have obtained the certificate during the internship period is 5,177 yuan, which is 1,544 yuan higher.

Faced with the era of China's commercial overseas expansion and the new era of upgrading and transformation of China's foreign trade exports after the 20th anniversary of China's accession to the WTO, the talent demand for cross-border foreign trade and digital overseas expansion is expected to further expand. Alibaba International Station actively participates in and contributes to the cultivation of college talents, not only fulfilling the necessary social responsibility for "stabilizing employment", but also making contributions to the talent demand of the foreign trade industry to the best of its ability.
