Research on the Collaborative Mechanism of Ideological and Political Education in Higher Education Institutions and Psychological Counseling for College Students’ Employment from the Perspective of Moral Education and Talent Cultivation
Main Article Content
Abstract
Guided by the fundamental task of cultivating morality and nurturing talents, ideological and political education in universities and psychological counseling for college students’ employment are important components of talent cultivation. The two systems are inherently compatible and complementary, jointly serving the goal of cultivating wellrounded socialist builders and successors. With intensifying employment competition, college students frequently experience employment-related psychological problems such as anxiety, inferiority, procrastination, avoidance, and frustration, which affect employment quality and physical and mental health. Ideological and political education provides value guidance, responsibility consciousness, and cognitive foundations for employment psychological counseling, while employment counseling focuses on regulating psychological states, strengthening psychological resilience, and improving job-seeking ability. This study analyzes the collaborative value, current difficulties, and operational logic of integrating these two systems from the perspective of moral education and talent cultivation. It constructs a full-chain collaborative mechanism involving value guidance, resource integration, team coordination, closed-loop process management, and evaluation feedback, aiming to bridge value education and mental health support in college employment guidance.
