In order to thoroughly implement the fundamental task of cultivating virtue and nurturing people and enhance the professionalization and specialization of the counselor team, the special training for the Counselor Quality and Ability Competition, hosted by the Student Affairs Department of the University Party Committee and organized by the School of Economics and Business Administration and the "Truth - Seeking" Counselor Growth and Development Studio, was held in Conference Room N10102 of Nanhu Comprehensive Building at 9 am on March 14. Chen Juan, the Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of the School of Economics and Business Administration and a tutor of the "Truth - Seeking" Counselor Growth and Development Studio, presided over the training.
This training invited Zhang Yuqian, a counselor from the School of Civil and Hydraulic Engineering at Huazhong University of Science and Technology and one of the "Top Ten Pace - Setters" in the 2024 National College Counselor Quality and Ability Enhancement Key Training Camp, and Zhao Wan, a counselor from the School of Economics and Business Administration and the second - prize winner of the 11th Hubei Provincial College Counselor Quality and Ability Competition of our university, to share their competition experiences.
With the theme of "Returning from 'Practical Drills' to Quality Enhancement", Zhang Yuqian, combined with her own experience, elaborated on the three core links of the competition: "Basic Knowledge Test", "Case Discussion", and "Heart - to - Heart Talk". She emphasized that in case discussions, it is necessary to closely focus on the essence of the problem and innovatively propose solutions. In heart - to - heart talks, it is necessary to base on actual work, move people with emotion, provide value guidance, and while solving practical affairs, also think about the value and significance. In addition, through the analysis of typical test questions, Teacher Zhang Yuqian encouraged counselors to transform daily ideological and political cases into competition materials, establish a personal knowledge system by summarizing different cases, continuously improve professional qualities, and better serve the growth of students.
Zhao Wan analyzed the preparation logic and practical path of the counselor quality and ability competition from the perspective of cultivating virtue and nurturing people. She started from the historical evolution of the counselor quality and ability competition, combined with the competition systems of the university - level and provincial - level competitions, and shared her preparation experiences from several dimensions such as theoretical knowledge, heart - to - heart talks, case discussions, and case analyses. She emphasized that the learning of basic knowledge should follow "one understanding, two ideas, and three skills", and in heart - to - heart talks, it is necessary to focus on cultivating the "student - centered" empathy and the ability to solve practical problems. Finally, Teacher Zhao Wan put forward the view that "competitions are a microscope of work, reflecting the professional quality in details", and shared it with the counselors for mutual encouragement.
Deputy Secretary Chen Juan highly affirmed the sharing of the teachers. She said that this training was full of valuable content, enabling everyone to obtain the true secrets of self - improvement and find the keys to solving problems.
This counselor quality and ability training deepened the purpose of the counselor quality and ability competition of "promoting learning and construction through competitions". It not only provided assistance for competition preparation but also further helped counselors find ways to improve their quality and ability, contributing to the growth and development of the political work team.
