Combined with his own experience as a part-time counselor, he demonstrated the crucial role of systematic training in career growth, and proposed that "we should not only set requirements, but also provide resources and development opportunities." He suggested that the training units should strengthen university-college collaboration and experience sharing, build a "development community" of student work, help part-time counselors improve their abilities in practice, and realize the career progression of "promising and talented".

Take the problem as the subject, and make daily life as the examination room
After the sharing, the teachers actively raised questions, creating a lively atmosphere at the scene. Cheng Xiuli fully affirmed the practical value of shared content in her concluding speech.
