On May 24-25,2024, at the invitation of the National Steering Committee for Professional Masters Degree Education in Finance, Zhang Wenjia, Vice Dean of the School of International Economics at Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics, and Guo Hongyu, Deputy Director of the Department of International Finance, attended the "Third National Financial Professional Masters Education Steering Committee Meeting and 2024 National Financial Professional Masters Degree Graduate Talent Development Conference". The event was organized by the National Steering Committee for Professional Masters Degree Education in Finance and hosted by Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics.

The theme of this conference is "Building a Financial Powerhouse and Cultivating Financial Talents". The meeting thoroughly implemented Xi Jinpings Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, carried out important discourses on building a financial powerhouse, and conducted discussions and exchanges from four aspects: the construction of a financial powerhouse and the demand for financial talents, the improvement of the quality of financial masters programs and distinctive education, the construction of a financial powerhouse and the innovation of talent models, and the case teaching and thesis writing of financial masters programs. It summarized the experience in cultivating financial masters talents, explored the innovation of financial talent training models, and held significant importance for how to do a good job in cultivating financial talents in the process of building a financial powerhouse.

Currently, there is an urgent need to further implement the Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era in financial professional masters education and to implement the important instructions on building a strong financial nation. Through the prelude forum on the 24th, the roundtable forum on the 25th, and the parallel forums, we gained valuable experience from sister institutions in interdisciplinary talent cultivation, financial talent training in the digital economy era, the construction of a strong financial nation and the demand for financial talent, the improvement of the quality of financial professional masters programs and distinctive education, the construction of a strong financial nation and innovation in talent models, as well as case teaching and thesis writing in financial professional masters programs. This helps us fully understand the rich connotations of "building a strong financial nation" and its requirements for financial talent training, and has significant reference value for further developing our universitys financial professional masters education.
