Visiting students' education is an important part of laboratory medicine continuing education. In the new era, the traditional continuing education model faces severe challenges in how to improve the clinical serviceability of grass-roots laboratories, the training quality of medical laboratory students, and the students' personal quality and professional ability. In the process of exploring the new training model for a long time, combined with the characteristics of the laboratory medicine and the needs of the visiting students, we put forward the new training concept of "tutorial system" for laboratory medicine students. The "one-to-one" model is used to teach students in accordance with their aptitude according to their aptitude for students of different levels and different cultural backgrounds and it has achieved certain success. The practice shows that the "tutorial system" for visiting laboratory medicine students can increase their belonging sense, improve the quality and level of the training, and expand the effect of continuing education.
