What can be learned from automobile inspection and maintenance technology, and what is the employment prospect?

"Car doctor" is becoming more and more popular.

There is a kind of talents who are very popular in Hangzhou, that is, middle and senior talents in automobile maintenance.

Zhang Xin, the sales manager of an IT company, recently told reporters happily that he hired a maintenance master of a brand 4S shop as his car consultant. All he needs to do in the car is make a phone call, and the car consultant will help him "diagnose" and propose solutions, saving him less money and a lot of time and energy. What he paid in return was 800 yuan's red envelope during the Chinese New Year. Zhang Xin believes in the concept of "professional things should be done by professional people".

It is understood that car consultants are becoming more and more popular. Eight people have invited Zhang Xin to be a consultant this year, compared with only one last year.

In contrast, the high-level forum on automobile maintenance is also sought after in Hangzhou.

Before May Day, Hangzhou Motor Vehicle Service Administration held a high-level forum on automobile maintenance. Professor Zhu Jun, a well-known domestic automobile maintenance expert and director of Beijing Sino-Japanese German-American Automobile Fault Diagnosis Institute, gave high-level lectures and was sought after by more than 500 automobile maintenance elites.

During the May Day holiday this year, Chen Xiaofeng, president of Hangzhou Modern Automobile Maintenance Vocational School, received many phone calls from important students. The boss of Shanghai Puriqing Automobile Company asked for five students. President Chen replied that all the students were fully booked before graduation, and it was really impossible to recruit five students.

The wheels are rolling, and "car doctors" are rare.

Hang Cheng has become one of the cities with the fastest influx of cars into families, with the number of private cars reaching 300,000, and senior talents in automobile maintenance are very popular.

Senior maintenance personnel refer to "car doctors" who can diagnose faults.

The diagnosis of symptoms is the basis of maintenance, and only when the symptoms are right can we prescribe the right medicine. The owner's biggest headache is that the repairman can't find the symptoms and keeps changing parts.

As Professor Zhu Jun said, simply replacing parts is the reason for the high cost of car maintenance, so car owners spend more money. With the electronization and informatization of automobiles, it is more and more difficult to maintain and diagnose faults. A BMW or Mercedes-Benz with more than 60 computers, large and small. Only by knowing electronics and electrotechnics and being familiar with single chip microcomputer can we cope with trouble.

Although some experts predict that the maintenance peak of domestic family cars will come in 2007, the maintenance peak of the first batch of private cars purchased earlier in Hangzhou has arrived ahead of schedule. The existing maintenance force in Hangzhou is difficult to bear the increasing maintenance of family cars. It is reported that although there are more than 700 auto repair shops with a certain scale in Hangzhou, most of them are mainly traditional repairs. Only a few people really own all kinds of new vehicle maintenance equipment, especially some imported modern middle and high-grade brand cars.

With the acceleration of the automobile society, we are obviously unprepared. According to statistics, automobile maintenance has become one of the key points of the training project of skilled talents to be implemented by the Ministry of Education, and the national demand for talents is nearly 654.38+00000.

Production demand promotes educational business plan

The huge market demand has spawned a huge business plan.

In recent years, various training modes of automobile maintenance talents have appeared in Hangzhou. However, there are only a handful of truly large-scale and lasting market winners.

At present, Zhejiang Jiaotong University, Hangzhou Technician College, Hangzhou Traffic Vocational and Technical School, Hangzhou Driving Technician School and Hangzhou Modern Automobile Maintenance Vocational Training School offer professional automobile maintenance courses in Hangzhou.

With the development of China's economy and the continuous innovation of means of transportation, the auto repair market in Hangzhou is facing the test of the decrease of ordinary cars (carburetor cars) and the increase of high-end cars (using EFI, automatic transmission, ABS, SRS, etc.). ). Auto mechanics are faced with the change from repairing ordinary cars to repairing high-end cars. Hangzhou Modern Automobile Maintenance School keenly seized the opportunity to transform the traditional automobile maintenance training into the latest technology of EFI automobile maintenance.

In order to let students master the real technology in a short time, the school invested millions of yuan to buy the most upscale cars on the market, such as more than 40 imported original cars and various automatic gearboxes such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi and Lexus. And equipped with the most intuitive circuit teaching board and all kinds of advanced automobile testing instruments, maintenance materials and maintenance software, so that students can understand it as soon as they listen. One-year students should not only be proficient in various maintenance links of various models, but also be familiar with English terms of computer operation and automobile maintenance. The teaching staff advocates "double-qualification", that is, the actual operation must have the experience of an old master in an automobile maintenance enterprise; Theoretical teaching must be qualified as a university lecturer.

Because the school keeps up with the pace of the market and has a flexible mechanism, it has developed into the largest advanced automobile maintenance technical training school in Jiangnan in just a few years, and has become a successful beach-snatcher for transporting middle and senior talents. Over the past six years, more than 65,438+00,000 "practical" automobile professional maintenance talents have been trained and delivered for automobile maintenance enterprises and brand 4s shops in the province and the whole country. More than 30%-40% have become the technical backbone of auto repair enterprises and brand 4s shops in Hang Cheng.

Break the deadlock, complement each other's advantages and cultivate talents quickly

It is understood that at present, the main force to train automobile maintenance talents is the vocational and technical college with academic education as the main force, and the new force is the vocational training school with skills as the main force. Insiders told reporters privately that these two models are different in system and mechanism. The former emphasizes academic qualifications and theory, and students "look without using", while the latter emphasizes practice, and students have low diplomas and "use without looking".

From this point of view, if we want to cultivate more middle and senior maintenance talents, we must break the ice and complement each other and take the road of running schools jointly.

The power of the market gave birth to the trend of progress.

More than 300 students from three technical schools and vocational colleges in the province came to Hangzhou Modern Automobile Maintenance Vocational School six months before graduation to strengthen their hands-on ability and diagnostic ability. Modern Distance Education of Beijing Jiaotong University actively contacted Hangzhou Modern Automobile Maintenance School, hoping to jointly run a school and cultivate senior maintenance talents with both academic qualifications and practical ability.

Chen Xiaofeng recalled to reporters the scene when they went to Shanghai to recommend students two years ago. At that time, the boss in Shanghai looked at us students with low academic diplomas with suspicion, and we begged them to try for three months. If the students have no skills, you can give them back to us. Now, many of our students have become the backbone of Shanghai brand 4S maintenance, and some even become store managers. We are going to open a branch school in Shanghai this year.

I learned from the reporter that in addition to the complementary advantages of joint education, in order to cultivate more high-level maintenance talents, we must also engage in order-based training and cooperate with brand 4S stores to do brand intensive training for 4S stores that need talents a few months before graduation.

It can be predicted that a brand-new training mode of senior maintenance talents will appear around us.
