Directional training is a system to recruit and train students for a specific region, department or unit. It is part of the national task plan enrollment. Directional enrollment can be implemented in designated regions, departments or units. The admission score can be slightly lower than the standard of non-directional enrollment. Students must work in designated areas, departments or units as planned after graduation.

The purpose is to enable remote areas, industries with hard working environment and units in urgent need of some talents to be assigned to a certain number of graduates, enhance the planning of enrollment and graduate distribution, make the training work more targeted and achieve greater social benefits. See "Directed Enrollment".

Employers, that is, institutions of higher learning, scientific research institutions focusing on basic research, state key enterprises (determined by the State Education Commission in consultation with relevant departments), governments, party and state organs, and public welfare institutions such as culture, medicine and health funded by the People's Liberation Army, may require targeted training of relevant talents.

In addition to the above scope, the employer's demand for talents shall not be directed, and the employer can only provide training fees and entrusted training. Training units or their competent departments shall not expand the scope of directional training employers by themselves.
