Manufacturing industry is an important part of China’s industry and plays an important role in China’s economic development and industrialization process. In the face of the increasingly fierce competition, the cultivation of professional technical talents in manufacturing is particularly important. The continuing education of professional technical personnel is an important method for enterprises to cope with competition and break through the predicament. Through the literature review of the development of the manufacturing industry in the Yangtze River Delta region and the questionnaire survey of professional technical personnel, this paper discovers that the continuing education of technical personnel in region does not necessarily meet the needs of technical personnel and that the teaching mode is single. Also, corresponding innovative solutions are proposed.
