Abstract

In this paper, we emplys the real case and feelings of tourism and hotel management students to participate in the "World Competition", which reflects how the hotel industry has implemented the "banquet service standard", and also lays a solid foundation for future student’s learning and corporate practicing. With the continuous improvement of "Chinese Services" and the application of practical teaching, the training goals of tourism management personnel in vocational colleges have changed. The launch of the World Skills Competition fits this trend and promotes the reform and development of the hotel management talent training model.. The World Skills Competition is hailed as the "World Skills Olympics". China participated in this project for the first time in 2015 (43th), and won consecutive gold awards in 2017 (44th) and 2019 (45th). Awards and restaurant service excellence awards have achieved zero breakthroughs in medals. The four majors covering cooking, baking, restaurant service, and hospitality of the hotel management major are all competitions in the personal and social service areas of the World Skills Competition. From August 22-27, 2019, the 45th World Skills Competition was held in Kazan, Russia. The Chinese delegation won a total of 16 gold medals, 14 silver medals, 5 bronze medals and 17 winning prizes in this competition. The gold medal list, medal list, and group total score are the first. China will host the 46th Shanghai World Skills Competition in 2021. In the future, we should focus on increasing international cooperation with members of the World Skills Organization, and closely follow hotel professional skills projects. It is hoped that the World Skills Competition will become the vane of the hotel management professional training and the level of colleges and universities.
