Abstract: The collaboration of industry, learning and research is the focus of higher vocational
education in recent years. Many higher vocational colleges have begun to practice collaborative
innovation theory in teaching. However, judging from the current development status, the current
mechanism for cultivating collaborative innovation talents in higher vocational education and
research is still not mature. And in the specific practice process, some problems have also been
exposed. It is still necessary for the government, education authorities, schools and enterprises to
work together to actively explore and improve the current talent training mechanism. This paper
starts with the analysis of the theme analysis of the collaborative innovation talent training
mechanism of higher vocational education, and then analyzes the problems exposed in the practice
process. Finally, it discusses its future development trend and specific countermeasures.

1. Introduction
Led by the rapid development of science and technology, today’s society is experiencing rapid
changes. Various industries in the economic field have put forward higher requirements for talent
training.Therefore, the concept of collaborative innovation of industry, learning and research as a
talent training in the field of education has been the focus of the higher education sector since its
introduction. As the main position for the cultivation of professional and skilled talents, higher
vocational colleges should actively conform to the development trend, take the construction of
collaborative innovation mechanism of industry, learning and research as an opportunity and reform
and innovate their own talent training mode according to their actual conditions so as to cultivate
more high-quality professional skills. From the perspective of development stage, the current
collaborative innovation theory of higher vocational education and research is still in the practical
trial stage, and its specific high-level personnel training mechanism is far from mature. And it has
exposed some outstanding problems such as imperfect policy environment and lack of stamina for
future development.

2. The subject analysis of the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration
of industry learning and research in higher vocational colleges
2.1 The main body of government
The government is one of the most critical subjects in the cultivation mechanism of innovative
talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research in higher vocational colleges, which
plays a dual role of instructor and manager, and plays a very important role in driving and
regulating. As driving role: the driving role of the government main body in the process of building
the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and
research in higher vocational colleges is mainly embodied in two aspects. One is to build and
improve the relevant laws and regulations so that the behavior of each main body in the whole
process of building the mechanism can be legally abided by, and it can also play a very important
behavior-guiding role in the system. The second is to use financial leverage to leverage other related
subjects, and use financial support as a means to drive different subjects to participate in the process

of building talent training mechanism. Regulating and controlling function: in the cultivation
mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research, there are
many diversified participants involved. Different participants have their own interests in the process
of talent training. How to properly balance the interests of diversified participants has become the
most important part in the construction and development of talent training mechanism. The
government main body can make full use of its leading role and coordinate the resources and
interests of each main body through administrative means, so that it can satisfy the interests of
different main bodies, thus maintaining that the cultivation mechanism of collaborative innovation
talents can be perfected.
2.2 The main body of colleges and universities
Higher vocational colleges are the specific places for the construction and perfection of the
cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research.
Therefore, the status of the main body of colleges and universities is very important in the
multi-subject system, usually in the role of practitioners and advocates. In the actual process of
training talents, their right to speak is also the largest. The role of the main body of colleges and
universities is mainly embodied in the exertion of its subjective initiative, and the full mobilization
of all kinds of teaching resources they possess, and the active advocacy of different subjects to
participate in the process of talent training to fully combine their own teaching advantages later, and
construct and practice a multi-subject collaborative innovation talent training mechanism. Higher
vocational colleges are basically colleges of technical application or vocational training. With the
popularization of higher education in recent years, the base of talent scale has been expanding. It
can be said that they have reserved a very large talent pool for the production and operation
enterprises on the front line of society, which is also a great advantage of the main body of colleges
and universities themselves to be able to play a role in mobilizing the main body of industry
enterprises.
2.3 The main body of industrial enterprises
The main body of the industry enterprise is an important participant in the construction of the
cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research. It
is essentially different from other main bodies, because the other main components are non-profit
social services or management organizations, while the industry enterprise is an independent
profit-making organization from society and its market characteristics are very obvious. Industry
enterprises are willing to participate in the training of collaborative talents. They have their own
strong interest demands. At the same time, their market characteristics determine that they have
unparalleled training advantages, which can provide abundant practical resources of software and
hardware for the training of talents. Industry enterprises participate in the training of collaborative
talents in higher vocational colleges, which is not only market behavior but also social behavior.
Their in-depth cooperation with universities is the basis of the construction of the cultivation
mechanism of collaborative innovation talents. If the degree of collaboration between them is not
enough, the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents is the root of nothing.
2.4 The main body of scientific research institutes
The so-called collaboration of industry, learning and research refers to the concept of innovative
talents training which covers multiple subjects such as production, schools and research, among
which "research" refers to scientific research institutes. As we all know, the research results of
scientific research institutes in our country often lack the market-oriented transformation way,
which leads to the fact that many valuable scientific research results cannot be effectively promoted
in the market, and its role in social and economic development is naturally difficult to play. In the
cultivation mechanism of training talents, there are two main interests of scientific research
institutes. One is to establish market-oriented promotion and application channels of scientific
research achievements with enterprises, and the other is to absorb high-quality scientific research
talents from colleges and universities. Among many participants, the academic advantage of

122
 Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 294

scientific research institutes is the most prominent, so they can provide very high-quality academic
services for colleges and enterprises, thus making the cultivation mechanism of collaborative talents
more perfect to really cultivate high-quality vocational skilled talents.

3. Problems in the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry

learning and research in higher vocational colleges
3.1 The policy environment is not sound.
Policy environment mainly includes two aspects of relevant laws and regulations system and
administrative support. It plays a very important role in the process of collaborative innovation, and
fundamentally provides support and impetus for the construction of talent training mechanism. The
construction and improvement of the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the
collaboration of industry learning and research in higher vocational colleges cannot be separated
from the guidance and support of the policy environment, because only by creating an open and
active environment, can the subjects of different interests be organically integrated, so as to ensure
that collaborative innovation can have an incessant motive force. Although the cultivation of
innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research has been successful in
foreign countries, it is not fully in line with China's national conditions, so the essence of
collaborative innovation in China is still in the error-correcting phase of trying to cross a river by
touching a stone. From the past practice course of collaborative innovation, due to the uncertain
direction of system improvement and development, the government's relevant policy system is
sound and lagging behind, which cannot create a sound and healthy policy environment for the
cultivation of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research in higher
vocational colleges.
3.2 Stamina of collaborative innovation is insufficient
Since 2011, the cultivation of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and
research in higher vocational colleges has gradually entered the stage of practice implementation. In
the early stage of development, it has indeed experienced a period of positive attitude and high
emotions of all participants. However, this situation has not been able to continue. There are two
main reasons for the insufficiency of stamina of collaborative innovation. One is the insufficient
internal motivation, because different participants have their own interests. Under the premise that
the mechanism cannot balance the interests of the participants in collaborative innovation, the
cooperation foundation of collaborative innovation is naturally difficult to be reliable; the other is
the insufficient external development conditions. Although China's economic structure has made
breakthroughs in the reform, the whole society has not yet formed a policy basis for the integration
of production, learning and research. There are still many contradictions in the process of
cooperation among schools, enterprises, governments and scientific research institutes, which has
directly resulted in concentrated outbreak of contradictions of various participants after the sweet
period. The construction and perfection of the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the
collaboration of industry learning and research in higher vocational colleges require the persistence
of the attitude and efforts of the participants, especially the sufficient stamina, to complete.
Otherwise, it is likely that the previous achievements will be abandoned.

4. Development trend of collaborative innovation of production, teaching and research in

higher vocational education
4.1 Further break the bondage of the traditional talent training mode in higher vocational
education
Due to the influence of many factors, the traditional higher vocational colleges show strong lag,
closeness and mechanization in talent training. They cannot adjust their teaching objectives and
directions well in line with the changes of human resources market, which leads to the situation that

123
 Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 294

the overall employment rate of students is not enough. The construction of the cultivation
mechanism of innovative talents in the collaboration of industry learning and research is an
important idea and means innovation in the field of higher vocational education. From the practical
application effect, it has brought new vitality and direction to the talent training of higher vocational
colleges, and is gradually breaking the inherent mechanism formed for a long time in higher
vocational education. Collaborative innovation of production, teaching and research fundamentally
changes the single subject situation of traditional higher vocational education talent training, and
makes the participants in the whole process of talent training more diverse, and different subjects
are equally unified in an effective mechanism. However, although the traditional talent training
mechanism in higher vocational colleges has lagged behind the times, it is not a matter of overnight
to make it completely withdraw from the historical stage. It still needs multi-subject cooperation to
innovate so as to gradually establish a more advanced and scientific talent training mechanism.
Although there are still some difficulties in the current stage in the development of the cultivation of
collaborative talent of industry learning and research, we can foresee that in the future it will be able
to further break the bondage of the traditional model, and hold high the banner of innovation to
bring our higher vocational education to a new height.
4.2 Further enhance the proportion and effect of practical teaching in higher vocational
education
The main task of higher vocational education is to cultivate high-quality practical skilled talents
for the society. However, it is difficult for higher vocational colleges to obtain more and better
practical teaching resources in the traditional education system, which directly leads to the situation
that traditional higher vocational education emphasizes theory and neglects practice. Institutions
themselves are non-profit organizations of social nature. Teachers generally lack the necessary
market practice experience. Due to the limitation of school-running conditions, all kinds of
hardware resources available for the operation of practical teaching are relatively scarce.
Cultivation of collaborative talents of production, teaching and research can help colleges and
universities to strengthen practical teaching resources, thus greatly improving the effect of practical
teaching. Since the establishment of the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the
collaboration of industry learning and research, the proportion and effect of practical teaching in
higher vocational education have been obviously strengthened. The collaborative cooperation
among various participants also plays a role of resource integration, which improves the teaching
level of colleges and universities, and makes enterprises have more abundant talent pools in the
human resources market.

5. Countermeasures to improve the cultivation mechanism of innovative talents in the

collaboration of industry learning and research in higher vocational colleges
5.1 Strengthen macro-control and optimize policy environment
As an important subject in the cultivation of collaborative talents of industry learning and
research, the government will not directly participate in the specific training process, but it is
charged with the important mission of creating a policy environment for collaborative innovation.
To further improve the policy environment, we should start with strengthening macro-control and
improving laws and regulations. Firstly, as an administrative department, the government should
make full use of administrative resources to guide universities, enterprises and scientific research
institutes to participate actively in the training of talents, especially to stimulate enterprises with
financial and financial leverage. Secondly, the government should further improve the laws and
regulations related to the training of collaborative innovative talents, so that all participants can
have legal basis in the process of collaborative cooperation, and can from the system establish the
interests of all participants to be maximally balanced. The importance of policy environment is
self-evident, but at present, the mechanism of collaborative talent training is not yet mature, so it
brings great difficulties to the government's regulation and legislation, and it is not easy to improve

124
 Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 294

the policy environment. Local governments should, on the one hand, actively summarize the
relevant successful experience of foreign countries, and on the other hand, conduct in-depth
research on the development status of the cultivation of collaborative talents of industry learning
and research in China, and then exchange in-depth views with the participants in order to ensure the
rationality and effectiveness of the policies and laws and regulations promulgated.
5.2 Drive common development and construct cooperative mechanisms
In essence, industry, learning and research all have interest appeal for talent training, but their
respective appeal points are quite different. Only when they are built into a real interest community,
can the value of collaborative innovation be fundamentally guaranteed. It can be said that the
interest community is an inevitable stage of collaborative innovation, and "driving common
development and constructing collaborative mechanism" is the necessary means to accelerate the
formation of the community. Firstly, local governments should fully promote market-oriented
teaching and teaching concepts, and build a perfect and scientific multi-party cooperation
mechanism, and guide more social institutions to participate in running schools by means of
regulation and control; secondly, in the process of running schools, intermediaries other than
industry, learning and research can be introduced to improve the interests of all parties involved in
order to avoid the worries of all participants. Thirdly, public opinion should be guided to strengthen
the promotion of collaborative innovation in industry, learning and research, so that it can get more
social attention and get more social support while enhancing the brand effect of colleges and
universities; fourthly, funds are often the most sensitive and difficult topics for participants in the
collaborative process, and banks, insurance and other financing institutions should be introduced to
build a smooth and stable financing system for the construction of cultivation mechanism of
cooperative and innovative talent.

6. Conclusion
Economic development promotes the wheel of the times to roll forward, and all walks of life are
experiencing constant changes under the yoke of historical trends. Cultivation of collaborative
innovative talents in industry, learning and research is a model that meets the requirements of
current economic development. Equality and cooperation among the three of industry, learning and
research in its cooperation mechanism, increase the participants in talent cultivation and radically
innovate the concept and mode of traditional higher vocational education. Although the cultivation
mechanism of collaborative innovation talents in higher vocational education is not perfect at
present, there is no doubt that its innovation in higher vocational education is unquestionable.
Through the joint efforts of the whole society, the development of higher vocational education in
China will surely take a new step.
