Liu Donghai, the vice general manager of Rhein-Koester, conducted the event.

Mr Chen Xin made speech and he indicated that the integration between academic certificate and vocational skill level certificate is not only important for revolution of vocational education, but also a great innovation in talent development. Rhein-Koester is one of the key organizations in fields of digital twin, industrial robot and industrial internet; he hopes Rhein-Koester to lead the works of establishment of position ability assessment and the assessment system which based on the actual needs of enterprises and industries, additionally to efficiently connects talents and industrial needs, lastly, he hopes Rhein-Koester to work together with other institutions, and jointly promotes the talent development for intelligent and digital manufacturing industry. 

Hu Chengman, the executive vice general manager of Rhein-Koester (China), described the industrial background of 1+X certificate and characteristics of training assessment organizations. He hopes the ‘Applied Vocational Skill Certificate of Production-Line Digital Simulation’ would effectively promotes the talent development and popularization of digital technology, as well as contribute to the digital transformation of enterprises. 

 Wang Wenhua, the vice president of Siemens Digital Industries Software made speech on topics of ‘Digital Twin Technology and 1+X Skill Development’. He mentioned that the Siemens group has always been at the forefront of the world in field of digital manufacturing transformation and the group developed advanced digital industrial software solution. Rhein-Koester is an important partner of Siemens in talent training, and the both parties already made outstanding achievements in applied talents development. He is happy to work with Rhein-Koester, and would jointly create modular, digital course system for industrial internet of intelligent manufacturing. 

Qi Songyu, the National Master of Skills from China FAW Group Corporation, made speech on topics of ‘Intelligent Manufacturing Application and Talent demand of China FAW Group Corporation’. He gave example of HongQi factory and shared the intelligent manufacturing applications that has been applied into automotive industry. He indicated that the talent need is huge during the digital transformation process of industries, he hopes to work with Rhein-Koester and develop senior talents who is capable for digital industries, as well as supports the China FAW Group developing into world 1st class factory and corporation.

Jiang Han, the manager of Rhein-Koester Digital Training and Research Center introduced and explained ‘Applied Vocational Skill Certificate of Production-Line Digital Simulation’ based on four aspects of vocational skills, course standards, training site, training and assessments. 

Song Zhigang, the director of Mechatronics Engineering College of Shenzhen Polytechnic, made speech on topics of ‘How the digital simulation design supports the major groups construction’. He introduced the importance of digital simulation design in construction of major groups, and shared the logics and methods of majors construction for mechatronics majors (intelligent manufacturing). Additionally, he introduced the cooperation status between the college and Rhein-Koester in field of digital design for equipments and simulation courses, ‘Dual-system’ faculty trainings, course and textbook development; he fully recognize the necessity of the ‘Applied Vocational Skill Certificate of Production-Line Digital Simulation’

Based on aspects of Analysis of Major Construction, Integration between Major Modules, Supporting Digital Resources, Hu Pengchang, the manager of Sino-German Training Project, detailed introduced the construction logics and implementation plan for ‘Digital Certificate of  Intelligent Manufacturing’ related majors.

 

Wang Jihong, the vice general-secretary of China Association of Mechatronics Technology and Application, introduced status about how the digital twin technology supporting economy development. He believe the ‘Applied Vocational Skill Certificate of Production-Line Digital Simulation’ which launched by Rhein-Koester, will effectively promotes the application of digital twin technologies and development of digital economy.

Vice secretary of China association of electromechanical integration technology application ji-hong wang also announced the Chinese association of electromechanical integration technology application and Rhein-Koester undertaken by coase, "the first national digital twin technology competition 2021" is about to start, hope that through competition to promote digital twin technology in product design, manufacturing, engineering construction, and further application in other fields, We will help industries upgrade to digital formats.

Wang Honglei, the assistant of general manager, detailed introduced the ‘Applied Vocational Skill Certificate of Production-Line Digital Simulation’ based on features of the certificate, revolution of ‘textbooks, faculty teams, teaching method’ and innovation, overall plan for pilot works, basic conditions for trainings, application process etc.

During the event, experts from different industries jointly explored the implementation plan for 1+X certificate, and exchanged the concepts about talent development models under backgrounds of industrial transformation, which further strengthened the confidence of major construction and digital upgrading of industries. Rhein-Koester hopes to work with the cooperation colleges and establish an innovative training model based on the integration between industry and education, as well as develop senior technical talents for digital transformation and economy development.
