Innovation in Talent Cultivation Models for Hospitality Management under the Context of Cultural and Tourism Integration: A Study Based on the Industry-Education Integration Framework

Abstract

Currently, the in-depth development of cultural and tourism integration is driving the hotel industry to evolve from traditional accommodation services into a comprehensive platform that integrates cultural experiences and local characteristics. This structural transformation places new demands on the knowledge, competencies, and literacy of hotel management professionals. Based on the framework of industry-education integration, this study systematically explores the interactive mechanism between cultural-tourism integration and industry-education integration, analyzing the structural shifts they trigger in the demand for hotel talent. The research further constructs a collaborative mechanism encompassing multi-stakeholder synergy, dynamic linkage between teaching and practice, a resource-sharing platform, and an evaluation-feedback safeguard. It also proposes specific innovative pathways, including restructuring interdisciplinary curricula, immersive cultivation of cultural and creative literacy, progressive development of digital competencies, and support for lifelong learning trajectories. This study aims to provide theoretical reference and practical guidance for the systematic innovation of talent cultivation models in hotel management within the context of cultural and tourism integration.
