“When I joined the Kaihua tailored-training program five years ago, I never expected the company would fully refund my college tuition.”

As a graduate of the first cohort from Kaihua Mould Industry College, Ethan, now a 3D engineer at Kaihua, received full tuition reimbursement for his three-year university study totalling 19,800 RMB. Kaihua Moulds honors its commitment to students of the tailoredtraining program with tangible financial support.

Taizhou Vocational & Technical College and Kaihua jointly run the industry college, developing a distinctive talent-training model for industry-education collaboration. Supported by the “factory-on-campus” setup, students gain access to unique practical-learning resources to build professional competence for the mould sector.

Kaihua’s HR director presented tuition refunds to multiple batches of eligible graduates. The company also hosted campus recruitment briefings for students on campus, introducing corporate culture, compensation packages and career-development opportunities, attracting over 150 students majoring in mould design & manufacturing and the Kaihua tailored-training program.

Kaihua has invested more than 20 million RMB to bring a complete production line for automotive interior plastic moulds onto campus, shortening the distance between classroom learning and real-world manufacturing. With dualmentor mechanisms, the college adopts work-study integration and one-mentor-one-apprentice hands-on training. This “enrolment-to-employment” pathway enables a smooth transition from campus to workplace for students.

The full-tuition refund initiative demonstrates Kaihua’s commitment to talent development within the mould industry. Combining on-site campus training, on-the-job mentorship and talent incentive policies, Kaihua focuses not only on employing skilled personnel but also on nurturing and retaining talent.

Through practical industry-education integration, Kaihua Mould Industry College continuously cultivates high-calibre technical talents for the mould industry. It reflects Kaihua’s sense of responsibility and industry influence, setting a benchmark for university-enterprise joint talent cultivation.
