The cultivation of tourism management talents in China is facing the situation of extensive planting but low outcome. There are some problems such as the disconnection between talent cultivation and market demand

and low degree of internationalization. As Generation Z is entering the workplace and new tourism technology is applied

the former talent cultivation mode does not adapt to the requirements of the new era. Through the investigation of the enterprises cooperating with Shandong Technology and Business University

we identify interns’ lack of abilities

and put forward relevant suggestions for talent cultivation reform

including the dynamic university-enterprise precise cooperation closed-loop model

bilingual teaching reform

clear career development planning

double tutorial system

and adding new technology related courses.
