ABSTRACT

With the proposal and promotion of the "Belt and Road" initiative and the growing bilateral trade between Ecuador and China, the demand for Chinese talents in various industries in Ecuador is increasing. However, there is currently no research on the Chinese talent demand in Ecuador's industry. To address this gap, this paper analyzes the types of demand for Chinese talents in Ecuador's industry based on trade volume data between China and Ecuador. The study finds that while the supply of Chinese language talents in various industries is in short supply, Chinese language education in Ecuador is still in its early stages, with an immature teaching system, a wide distribution of talent, and limited industry-specific Chinese language curricula. Furthermore, the training unit lacks attention to Chinese talent training and suffers from a shortage of teachers. In light of these challenges, this paper proposes four suggestions: (1) Ecuador should clarify its talent training goals and train Chinese talents in agriculture, fishery, mining, and manufacturing; (2) talent training work should be implemented at all levels and diversified to cover a range of subjects; (3) attention should be paid to the training of teachers and the construction of Chinese language teaching staff in the industry; and (4) cooperation should be strengthened to provide research and development support for Chinese teaching resources in Ecuador. This paper aims to provide insights and reference for the training of Chinese talents in Ecuador and the analysis of demand for Chinese talents in other countries.
