Construction of an Integrated Talent Development Model for "Cultural Tourism and Hospitality" under the Context of State-sponsored Academic Visits to the UK

Abstract

In the context of the deep synergy within the value chains of cultural tourism and the hospitality industry, traditional discipline-specific talent development models struggle to meet the demand for interdisciplinary professionals required by industrial integration. From the perspective of state-sponsored academic visits to the UK, this study explores the construction of an integrated talent development model. It begins by analyzing the logic of value co-creation between these two major industries and the T-shaped knowledge structure required for integrated talent, thereby revealing the limitations of traditional training approaches. Subsequently, by deconstructing the UK's interdisciplinary education system, immersive academic environment, and its cutting-edge industrial ecosystem, the study extracts pathways for cognitive reconstruction and resource empowerment. Ultimately, it constructs a core training framework oriented towards three-tiered competencies-foundational, procedural, and strategic-supported by a modularized curriculum and dynamic knowledge graph, and ensured through processual evaluation and feedback mechanisms. This provides a systematic framework for reforming the development of relevant talent.
